Featured review
A beautiful movie
Director Wolman has made many films in various genres but is little known in the United States, a great pity. This project started when Wolman was approached by by Pnina Gary, who'd written a monodrama about a relationship she had during the period before and after Israel became a state. The play was very successful, performed in various countries in different languages.
The film fills out the story with other characters and insights into Arab-Jewish relations during that period.
Wolman is definitely an actor's director, in that the acting is quite natural and the film feels relaxed and very real. a beautiful journey. Adi Bielski still performs in the stage version playing multiple characters, but on film she registers complex emotions which almost allows the audience to read her mind. This is nothing short of a brilliant performance, and thanks to her and her co-stars, makes this old story new again. It also has an excellent soundtracks, fully utilizing surround to envelop us. I saw this in a large theatre with an excellent sound system, and it simply came alive.
Wolman himself introduced this film at the Rutgers Jewish Film Festival this year, and answered questions. He has been honored all over the world for his work. Amazon Prime has a few of his movies available, and I hope more get into circulation in this country.
At this writing, the director is working on two projects. I can't wait to see them.
