Loss of girlfriend Iris

Old traumas also surfaced. In 1990, his then 18-year-old girlfriend was killed in an attack. “It was the hardest thing that ever happened to me,” the actor says of this sad moment in his life.

It was a healing process […] You’re dealing with things you’ve never had to deal with. I didn’t talk about my military service for years. I didn’t talk about Iris either. When we were writing and filming Fauda, ​​I realized I was dealing with things that I had blocked.
