AVIVA, MY LOVE: SJFF 2008
13TH ANNUAL SEATTLE JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL 2008
AVIVA, MY LOVE (AVIVA AHUVATI)
Israel, 2006
Cinerama: Saturday, April 5th 7:30 PM
Topics: Women/Romantic Comedy
An Israeli commercial and artistic triumph, Aviva, My Love is the richly-layered story of a working-class woman desperate to escape her provincial life in the seaside town of Tiberius. Aviva Cohen (in an award-winning performance by Asi Levi) is barely staying afloat. She supports her unemployed husband working as a hotel kitchen cook while caring for rebellious teenage children and an unstable mother. Aviva finds herself on the brink of fulfilling a lifelong ambition to be a writer when she is introduced to a famous novelist by her sister (played by Rotem Abuhav, who won the Israeli Oscar for Best Supporting Actress). In the face of brutal ambition, can Aviva fulfill both her own emotional needs and those of her family, without selling her soul? Winner of six Israeli Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Script and Best Director honors for acclaimed filmmaker Shemi Zarhin (Bonjour Monsieur Shlomi, SJFF 2003).
