Dir. Avi Nesher

Released September 7, 2018

 

This film by Israeli director Avi Nesher is a beautiful, multifaceted glimpse into a group of people’s lives who are battling secular vs religious.

 

Director Avi Nesher weaves the lives of three couples and one grandfather. Set in Jerusalem, this film presents a series of fear-based decisions and their consequences. Where no one person’s story is the right story. One character’s view of what is right is another persons torture. Each person has their truth.

 

The story line is beautifully composed and comprehensive. We would all be wise to take a step back and ask ourselves to look beyond our own story.
