Winner of the Grand Prize at Tokyo's 2007 FilmEx festival competition, TehiIim places French-born writer-director Raphael Nadjari at the forefront of IsraeI's ongoing cinematic new wave. ln contemporary Jerusalem, an average middle class Jewish famiIy balances the rituaIs of family, friends, religion and workaday life. But when middle-aged father and husband Eli unaccountably vanishes after a fluke car accident, the ensuing IegaI and emotionaI crisis gradually immerses Eli's spouse and two young sons in a muted reaI-life nightmare redefining the boundaries of everything they know, love and believe. WhiIe wife AIma navigates a bureaucratic maze of sociaI services and paperwork, elder son Menachem has his fragiIe faith and eIusive adoIescent peace of mind shaken to the core.
Leading a pitch-perfect ensembIe of professional and non-professionaI actors, "Michael Moshonov imbues his character with a mystery and ambiguity that young people 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 dramaticaIIy x-ray the fragile bonds tenuously holding individuaIs, reIationships, famiIies, and reIigions together. |
