Itay Segal | 2023 | Israel | 20 min.For some time\, Roy had been planning what he would say to his ex when he ran into him. He never imagined that it would happen in his one-night stand apartment. They haven’t seen each other since Ben left their shared apartment in Tel Aviv. What does one say at such a moment? Are people able to move on and mend a broken heart\, only if they have closure? \n\n\n\n“SEE YOU ‘ROUND THE BLOCK”Dir. Daniel Gat | 2023 | Israel | 15 min.As the morning rises over Tel Aviv\, Dror encounters Eitan\, his ex. Both are on their way back home from a long night out.

Riki Rotter | 2023 | Israel | 19 min.Tamar\, an ultra-Orthodox girl from an extremist community\, is taken to the hospital by her beloved father\, who thinks she has had sex. Her relationship with her father and her virginity are tested. \n\n\n\n“MORE THAN FRIENDS”Dir. Omri Laron | 2023 | Israel | 19 min.A quirky lesbian mom discovers a love letter written by her 11-year-old son to another boy. Concerned for her son’s social status\, she crashes into a birthday party to keep a close eye on him. \n\n\n\n“THE HOLINESS”Dr. Daniel Moreshet | 2025 | Israel | 17 min.Vered and Avihai\, a religious Jewish couple\, secretly embrace a secular life behind closed doors. Their carefully hidden double life unravels when their teenage daughter catches them watching TV on Shabbat—the holiest night in Judaism—forcing them to confront the cracks in their carefully constructed facade. \n\n\n\n“PUFFS”Dir. Chaya Moshayev | 2024 | Israel | 14 min.Ella and Edik\, brothers of a traditional Bukhari family\, arrive early on holiday to their childhood home. There they find their homophobic father – dead and dressed in women’s clothes. \n\n\n\nTickets: $15Tickets may be purchased at the Cinema Arts Box Office or online.
