DISSOLUTION

March 9th, 2012

DISSOLUTION- 2012. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “Loosely inspired by Dostoyevsky’s Crime and Punishment, Menkes’s most recent film combines an almost surreal fairy-tale energy with brutal black-and-white realism to explore the condition of violence that permeates contemporary Israeli society. Shot in Yafo (the predominantly Arab area of Tel Aviv), the movie follows the moral collapse and first glimmer of redemption, of a young, morose Israeli Jew, played brilliantly by Didi Fire.”

3/9/12- Excellent review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.
