OUT ON FILM: Opening Night - THE BUBBLE
Landmark Midtown Art Cinema
Atlanta, GA
Acclaimed director Eytan Fox (YOSSI & JAGGER, WALK ON WATER) mixes politics both sexual and otherwise in his newest film. Three young Israelis, two guys and a girl, share an apartment in Tel Aviv`s hippest neighborhood: headstrong Lulu, who works in a bath products boutique; flamboyant Yali, who manages a trendy caf; and brooding music store clerk Noam (YOSSI & JAGGERs Ohad Knoller), who spends his weekends serving at checkpoints in the National Guard. When Noam meets and falls in love with a Palestinian man named Ashraf, he and his friends conspire to help Ashraf stay on in Tel Aviv illegally. They participate in a beach rally, celebrating a peaceful coexistence, and calling for an end to the occupation of Palestinian territories. But ultimately, their carefully constructed utopia is shattered by the political and social realities of the Middle East, and the constant outbursts of violence.
Winner of the Audience Awards at the Berlin Film Festival, Outfest, and Philadelphia Gay and Lesbian film festivals, THE BUBBLE has had a profound impact wherever it has played. Director Eytan Fox has scored another success in his growing body of work that always deftly examines major socio-political issues through engaging stories of personal interaction.
