| Movie Haiku: | Alkan makes an indelible screen debut as "Fania," a young woman who arrives in Turkish Palestine in 1882 fleeing Russian pogroms. Strong period detail augmented by starkly beautiful cinematography make the drama come alive well beyond the pages of Shulamit Lapid's source novel. Gei Oni is a place, the original name of the Israeli town now called Rosh Pinnah. |
