"Desperado Square"
2001
Directed by Benny Toraty

Morris Mandabon made a vow never to screen movies at his neighborhood theatre, but on the one year anniversary of his death, Morris visits his youngest son Nissim (Nir Levy) in a dream and urges him to re-open the theatre. Thus begins a moving and sensitively wrought Israeli drama that touches on themes of memory, family, and cultural obligation. Winner of 5 Israeli Academy Awards, Benny Toraty's drama also boasts a talented ensemble cast and a spirited soundtrack of ethnic music. In Hebrew with English subtitles. 98 minutes.
