Israel | 2021 | 100 min. | Hebrew | Subtitles: Hebrew | Fiction
A father and his son try to stop time through cinema, but the father’s illness threatens to outrun them both. As the father gradually shuts into his home, coping unsentimentally with his impending death, his son ignores reality and tries to invent his father as a movie hero one last time before he’s gone. At the end of the fiction, Tel Aviv will go up in flames, yet the father’s world doesn’t explode but rather fades, unravels, and disappears.
