The film deals with many serious issues, some of them only superficially, but Fox places them all in the context of the growing friendship between the two opposites.

This movie already has enough topics on the table. As a result, none gets the attention it deserves.

If there are no simple solutions offered to calm Israel's troubles, there is still hope in this fine portrait of a country torn too many ways.
