Set in Israel in the aftermath of the 1948 Palestinian expulsion and flight, the film tells of a house by the sea in Tel Aviv-Yafo, from which Arabs have had to flee in haste, which becomes the home of Jewish survivors who managed to escape the inferno in Europe. It deals with the turmoil of their existence, under the shadow of the unresolved conflict between Jews and Arabs.
Journalist Dr. Shmuel Duvdevani [he] opined that “the film is filled with a great many wonderful cinematic moments,”[5] while fellow journalist Uri Klein [he] largely dismissed the “lack of proper cinematic tools,”[6] and fellow journalist Meir Schnitzer [he] awarded it three out of five stars.[7] The film was released on DVD on 19 June 2018.[8] The Film Review Council [he] has rated this film as being appropriate for all audiences.[9] It is estimated that only around 3,000 tickets were sold domestically, though the film was nominated for several awards at the 2017 Ophir Awards [he].[10]
