True to its title, Doron Benvenisti’s film is a charming comedy with dramatic undercurrents. Ran directs a successful international investment company; he is married to Dana and they have two children. Their friend Keren, a musician, is married to Leon, an attorney. David is a successful gynecologist, who lives with his boyfriend, Gal. No one knows his true sexual identity, so Ran sets him up with Daniella, his secretary. A quiet evening together among the six friends is interrupted by the unexpected arrival of a fortune teller. Her prophecies disturb the group’s fragile harmony and each of these people’s lives begins to unravel. Sponsored by Zutano. Community Partner: Beth Jacob Synagogue. Post-film event: filmmaker Doron Benvenisti will appear at all showings. No rating, 101 minutes, in Hebrew with subtitles. Film website
