NOTES

Title from title frames

This inspiring, award-winning movie is a universal story about a father coming to terms with a son who has little interest in the family business. The father Yitzhak runs a turkey farm his built by his own father after they emigrated from Iran to Israel. Yitzhak hopes his 13-year-old son, Moti, will continue the proud family tradition, but the son's passion is cars. Yitzhak takes Moti's lack of interest as a personal rejection, setting off an unpredictable chain of events. Winner of five **Ophir Awards** (Israel's "Oscar"), including Best Film. "*A metaphor for the struggle between the migrant generation, which is holding on to the past and traditions from another country, and the sabra generation born into a new identity and seeking out a fresh path. Strikingly shot... a strong, naturalistic production design*." - ***Variety***
