Беспокойство
Writer
Моше на грани отчаяния. Все те скромные проекты, над которыми он работает в Нью-Йорке, больше не приводят к успеху. Двадцать лет назад Моше был довольно успешным писателем у себя на родине, в Израиле. Однако он чувствовал, что его жизнь и причитающийся ему успех проходят мимо него. После рождения сына Моше оставил семью и переехал в Америку в поисках славы и удачи. И он даже не задумывался над тем, что совершает. Цах — солдат одного из элитных подразделений израильской армии. Он отчаянно бросается в бой и выполняет задания любой сложности, как будто пытается залечить какую-то душевную рану. Когда умирает его мать, Цах, который вырос без отца, находит в бумагах покойной адрес мужчины, который когда-то дал ему жизнь. Гнев, кипевший в душе юноши, с годами утих. Цах решает найти своего отца — и это полностью меняет жизнь Моше.

Еда и женщины на скорую руку
Writer
Что ни говори, но если девице уже тридцать пять, денег нет и с личной жизнью «не фонтан» — это серьезно. А если у нее в дополнение ко всему прижимистый безразличный любовник и крошечная квартирка, в которой водятся мыши, то дела совсем плохи. Остается только выйти на улицу и лечь под колеса первого встречного автомобиля… Что, собственно, и сделала очаровательная, но отчаявшаяся героиня этой картины. Но именно в тот момент, когда она устроилась на мостовой поудобней и в последний раз закрыла глаза, судьба смилостивилась. Беспросветная и тоскливая жизнь исчезла, как туман, и наступило время чудес, которые могут случится лишь в Нью-Йорке…

Сью
Producer
Героиня фильма Сью - молодая, привлекательная и хорошо образованная женщина, оставшаяся без работы. Сью не по карману платить за квартиру, она пьёт, мучается от бессонницы и страдает от невыносимого, всепоглощающего одиночества в огромном, безразличном Нью-Йорке. Женщина слишком нерешительна и замкнута, чтобы принять чью-то дружбу. Единственный, отчаянный способ, при помощи которого она может общаться с окружающими её миром - секс. Мимолётные связи со случайными мужчинами - последнее напоминание о том, что она все ещё существует. И вот однажды Сью встречает человека, у которого есть шанс изменить её жизнь…

Fiona
Writer
Fiona is abandoned at six months of age, raised in foster and adoptive homes, abused, and, still a teen, hustles on the streets of New York. We watch her use heroine, fall in love with other women, be pursued by men, engage in murderous violence, hide out in a crack house, and decide to leave the city. We see her mother, also a streetwalker and drug user, occasionally talk about her lost daughter. Fiona has a necklace she was clutching when a foundling. Will mother and daughter meet? Is there a silver lining?
