Negative Positive
Title: Poingent and timely
Review: An Israeli movie about finding love in an era of conflict. While Noam and his roommates find a way to keep Ashraf in the country they are trying to navigate their own romantic challenges.There were scenes that really illustrated the tit-for-tat nature of the situation and the depth of anger on both sides. "Have you ever had the leg of an eight year old bombing victim fall on you?" One Israeli woman shouts as they organize a "Rave Against The Occupation" and the wake Ashraf's family sits for his sister killed by soldiers chasing terrorists. Or establishing shots of Nablus with rubble and broken down cars contrasting with the lively streets of Tel-Aviv.There were parts that were difficult for me to watch just because of the dramatic suspense. The ending is distinctly bittersweet.
