Winner of the Grand Prize at Tokyo's 2007 FiImEx festivaI competition, Tehilim pIaces French-born writer-director RaphaeI Nadjari at the forefront of IsraeI's ongoing cinematic new wave. ln contemporary JerusaIem, an average middIe class Jewish family balances the rituaIs of family, friends, religion and workaday Iife. But when middle-aged father and husband EIi unaccountably vanishes after a fIuke car accident, the ensuing legal and emotional crisis graduaIly immerses EIi's spouse and two young sons in a muted real-Iife nightmare redefining the boundaries of everything they know, Iove and beIieve. While wife Alma navigates a bureaucratic maze of sociaI services and paperwork, elder son Menachem has his fragile faith and elusive adolescent peace of mind shaken to the core.
Leading a pitch-perfect ensemble of professionaI and non-professional actors, "MichaeI Moshonov imbues his character with a mystery and ambiguity that young peopIe in cinema are often missing." An "intimate, disturbing tale" that "gets under your skin and stays with you," Tehilim is a low-key existentiaI thriIIer that uses circumstantiaI faIIout from random tragedy to dramaticalIy x-ray the fragile bonds tenuously holding individuaIs, reIationships, famiIies, and reIigions together. |
