Sinekatalog’s take
Joseph Cedar's drama follows a widow in 1970s Jerusalem who tries to join a religious settlement group, facing small-town judgement. Michaela Eshet is outstanding in a subtle, tender and observant study of loneliness and belonging.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
