| Description |
Israel, 2007, 57 minutes
Hebrew (English Subtitles)
Directed by Duki Dror
When does it all begin? How do we become who we become? How does it happen that we get slotted into our places in the social pecking order? How did any of us survive the tribulations of childhood? These are some of the questions that may pass through your mind as you watch Sidewalk, the latest documentary by Duki Dror (My Fantasia, Happy Days). In this film, Dror presents a simple, child's-eye view as he follows kids on their daily journeys to and from school. The filmmaker shares the same wondrous gift of bittersweet nostalgia that the cartoonists Charles M. Schulz and Lynda Barry possess. They all remind us that the touch of our childhood is with usand marks usforever.
