Film Synopsis: 

Idan Haguel’s smart satire illuminates the insidious ways privilege can unleash the prejudice within. The story focuses on Ben, who thinks of himself as an enlightened liberal and lives with his perfect boyfriend in a newly renovated apartment in a gritty, “up-and-coming” neighborhood in South Tel Aviv. This skillfully told parable about the mechanisms of gentrification raises an uncomfortable question: Are we as tolerant as we think we are?

Tickets:

 Just head to the film’s booking page on the JBFC website, click on your preferred date and showtime, and follow the instructions.
