HAppy Holidays
Type: Dramatic ✦✦✦
Director: Coptic scandar. With Manar Shehab, wonder Mamorsky, Tufic Danial, Shani Dahari
The sound of the sirens and omnipresence (especially in the school, including the primary one) of the military apparatuses. The tensions between the communities and the subtle racism that pollutes relationships.
Israel pre-7 October, two families whose destinies are interconnected. Rami and Shirley, Arabic Him, Jewish, wait for a son.
Rami and Shirley, the characters played by Toufica Danial and Shani Dahari in “Happy Holidays” (Fresh Film – Red Balloon Film – Tessalit Productions – Intamovies).
The frictions, which we already guess, turn into tragedy When her family imposes her solution.
Copti Scandar, winner with this film of the Orizzonti Prize at the latest Venice exhibition (but also of another half a dozen awards), asks non -professional actors to stage the complexity of a place where nothing ever corresponds to current narratives.
Without providing solutions. Indeed, asking the viewer to do his part. It’s worth it.
