Review of Jaffa (2009) by Bill D — 16 Jun 2018
This is a heart-wrenching Romeo and Juliet story set in Jaffa with an Arab-Israeli Romeo and an Israeli Juliet. Writer-director Keren Yedaya lays bare prejudice and class differences in this French-Israeli-German-produced family drama.
Dana Ivgy is the standout of the cast in the Juliet role, and was nominated for the Ophir Award for Best Actress.
