| Movie Haiku: | Abandoned at an orphanage in British Palestine at the end of 1944, teenage "Maya" witnesses Yishuvniks celebrating the end of WWII & returning to the business of building the new state of Israel. Lazarov is brilliant as "Markovsky," an idealist charged with sheltering women & girls otherwise forgotten. Screenplay greatly improves Rachel Eytan's ethereal novel. | ADDITIONAL FF2 INFO ABOUT THIS FILM: | Women filmmakers? | Yes | Jewish content? | Yes | Haiku Posted: | 2012 | |
