Film Critic

The love concept of a serious straight man with cancer can torture both oneself and others. But he deserves to torture himself, but not to torture others. And this woman lives in a country where marriage is not free, which is also pitiful. All the plots of the film take place in the courtroom, although it is deliberately designed, it is still slightly thin. The plot supported by the dialogue has strong traces of carvings, but it lacks groundless aphorisms. The theme of the film is clear, but behind the clear theme, what it criticizes is too grand, causing the film itself to appear insignificant and even helpless compared with it. This, I have to say, weakens what it should be. The power to show. (Towel City)

Viviane Amsalem: Why are you making me run around in circles? Why, Your Honor? Why? Why have I come in and out for years now and nothing's changed? Why? You can't force him to divorce nor to appear, and you can't this or that, and what about me? When will you see me? When I'm too exhausted to stand before you? When? If it were up to you, it could go on for 10 years. I could drop dead in front of you and all you'd see was him! But nobody is above the law. There's a God and there's justice and He'll judge you as you judge me. Mercilessly. You don't care about me!
