Samuel Maoz
Plot
Parents in Tel Aviv are told that their son has been killed at a checkpoint, and then that it was a mistake.
Sinekatalog’s take
Samuel Maoz's Israeli drama starts with a family told its son is dead, then wrongly so. Formally bold and darkly absurd, with a striking dance-like structure, it is a bleak meditation on fate and grief.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
