Nominated for 9 Ophir awards (the Israeli Oscars) including Best Film, Best
Director, and Best Actress, this wonderfully observed comedic drama follows
Ella (Dana Ivgy) a costume designer who is in a long-term affair with Assaf, a
married playwright. When Assaf dies unexpectedly, Ella decides to attend Shiva
while keeping her identity under wraps, diving into a world once forbidden to
her. Through intimate encounters with his family, she examines her place in his
life and eventually demands her legitimate right to mourn. (Israel, France, 2022, 83 mins, Hebrew | Dir. Maayan Rypp)
