A powerful and gripping social drama. The plot tells the story of Emma and Gregory, a couple of immigrants from Russia trying to survive in a harsh and alien reality. Their lives intersect with Yael and Alon, a bourgeois Israeli couple whose marriage is falling apart.
The story raises the issue of immigration, the alienation and estrangement that immigrants experience in their attempts to integrate into society, the inner loneliness of people and the vagaries of fate.
The film was an official selection of the Warsaw Film Festival and the Cinequest California Film Festival.
Starring: Oleg Levin, Keren Pels, Yulia Tagil, Oded Menster, Isai Golan.
Meeting of the creators - Eric Lubsky, director and creator of the film
