| Poignant, often witty and exceedingly
cinematic, JELLYFISH (MEDUZOT), tells the story of three very different
Tel Aviv women whose intersecting stories weave an unlikely portrait of
modern Israeli life. Batya, a catering waitress, takes in a child
apparently abandoned at a local beach. Batya is one of the servers at
the wedding reception of Keren, a bride who breaks her leg escaping a
locked toilet stall, ruining her chance at a dream Caribbean honeymoon.
And attending the event with an employer is Joy, a non Hebrew-speaking
domestic worker who has guiltily left her son behind in her native
Philippines. |
