Sacrifice for no good
5 May 2005
Warning: Spoilers
This is a moralizing film in the best meaning of the word. It's about the girl, who lives with her prostitute mother. The daughter in many ways are her mother's mother, all the time telling her what to do or forbidding her from doing certain things.

Everything is in vane. Then the daughter makes a sacrifice to save the mother but doesn't succeed. Now both of them are condemned instead.

Keren Yedaya is a great director. The acting is brilliant here, and the things Yedaya tries to say are obvious, but doesn't underestimate the intelligence of the audience. This is a dark movie, very dark, but it doesn't push you away. Great work!
