Set in modern day Israel, this is a story of an Orthodox family. The father is a older,well respected Rabbi with a wife and roughly nine year old son. The Rabbi is devoted to but distant with his young son as his religious observances are his priority. On a family vacation to the Dead Sea, the unthinkable occurs.
This is a very quiet movie and very interestingly shows aspects of a very different culture. But human emotions and reactions to tragedy are universal. The movie is in Hebrew with English subtitles. This is a gem of a foreign film. I give this film a green light.
