Interesting Film

I saw this movie in my Hebrew class as a pre-Chanukah treat. The movie brings to life the people of Israel and makes a non-Israeli understand the everyday conflicts. An excellent example is when the Arab waves a gun around to steal lettuce for a rabbit, but no police are called and the gas station attendants merely remark that it is a "crazy country." The ending of the movie is a shock but helps solidify the reality that exists in Israel. And, of course, for a Jewish Hebrew student, the culture aspect of the movie was very important. I would definitley recommend it.
