I'm in a Cannes mood last night, so I'm trying to watch any Palme d'Or nominees/winners. This showed on Netflix so I decided to watch it.
Yadon Ilaheyya or Divine Intervention is a black comedy film set in Israel. It's one of those movies that really isn't about anything. It shows vignettes of different people on their daily routine, and suddenly it will shock you with ABSURD moments. It also has very little dialogues.
This is an absurdist film that also shows the conflict happening in Israel. It has one of the most original style of filmmaking I've seen. Honestly, I wasn't really bored. There is one problem for me though. Honestly, I don't really know much about the politics in Israel so I didn't really get some of it, like the meaning of the flying balloon for instance. I wish they gave some Eli5, like how the movie Argo explained things before starting. Before watching this or any kinds of movies like this, I guess you gotta research or google some Eli5 articles about it before watching so you gotta at least understand some of it.
