Kafka for Kids
Ms. Chair / Mother
Basically, Kafka’s Metamorphosis is unfilmable. After all, the author didn’t want visual representations to appear of the insect Gregor Samsa turned into; readers should visualise that themselves.
Alouette
Alouette, a raunchy short musical from Israel about love in the psychiatric ward, depicts the story of Ido, a young psychology trainee, and his complicated relationship with one of the patients, The eccentric widower Eliezer, who is in love with Alouette, a magical singing bird.
Last Resort
The year is 1993. Night-time. September 13 (The Oslo Agreement is signed in Washington - Rabin-Arafat handshake takes place during this night). The remains of a deserted Nahal settlement with social ambitions from the early 80s are scattered over mount Hazon (literal meaning: vision) in the lower Galilee.
