Description

After being injured in a military operation, Omri, a young IDF soldier, is clinging to life. His family holds vigil in his hospital room, speaking softly to him, praying, and watching for any sign of improvement, and his friends join to watch soccer, play music, and joke around. Within moments of heartbreak, humor, and hope, Omri’s family’s dynamic emerges. A beautifully rendered story of resilience which illustrates the ordeal faced by military families in Israel and throughout the world.

 

11/7 screening followed by a conversation with Nir Caspi, Former Member of the Israeli Naval Commando, moderated by Lital Carmel, IAC-Boston Regional Director
