Herz Frank (17 January 1926- 3 March 2013) was one of the most famous documentary filmmakers of Latvia. At the beginning of 1960ies, he was among the first to establish the so-called Riga poetic documentary school – the Latvian “new wave”. Herz Frank’s filmography includes more than 80 films, many of which are considered classics of Latvian film history. One of his most-known works is Ten Minutes Older (1978), which he made together with Juris Podnieks and in which children's faces are observed during a puppet theatre performance. In 1992, Frank moved to Israel, while maintaining ties with Latvia. In 2001, he received the Lifetime contribution award by the Latvian National Film Awards 'Lielais Kristaps'.
