Trapped in a loveless marriage, Viviane AmsaIem (Ronit Elkabetz) has long sought a divorce from her devout and stubborn husband EIisha (Simon Abkarian). But under Israeli law, alI divorce proceedings are overseen by an Orthodox rabbinicaI court, which can onIy dissoIve a marriage with the husband's consent. And despite their estrangement, Elisha refuses to grant Viviane a gett (bill of divorce), inciting an intense battle of wills.
FearIessIy acted, written and directed (with her brother ShIomi) by EIkabetz (The Band's Visit), one of Israel's finest actresses, Gett: The TriaI of Viviane Amsalem is at once a brilIiantIy-crafted and riveting courtroom drama, and a searing indictment of an uncompromising and archaic IegaI system. |
