Nathan Silver has written and directed nine feature films as well as multiple shorts. His work has played festivals and venues around the world, including New York Film Festival, Venice, Tribeca, Mar del Plata, AFI, Locarno, Rotterdam, Viennale, MoMa, Film at Lincoln Center, Museum of the Moving Image, La Cinémathèque Française, and Cineteca Nacional, Mexico. The New Yorker recently called Silver “a modernistic master of melodrama,” and said that “[he] proves himself to be one of the most original American independent filmmakers working today.” His latest feature BETWEEN THE TEMPLES starring Jason Schwartzman and Carol Kane marks his Sundance debut. He currently has another project in development with David Gordon Green's Rough House Pictures (HALLOWEEN, PINEAPPLE EXPRESS).
