Meduzot / Les Méduses
by Etgar Keret & Shira Geffen
Tel-Aviv, today.
At her wedding reception, Keren breaks a leg. And bang goes the Carribean honey-moon.
A strange little girl comes out of the sea and follows Batya like a shadow until Batya's life changes forever.
Joy is a maid from the Philippines. She works for a though old lady and unintendendly reconciles her with her daughter. This is a composite film, made of scraps of humanity, like so many messages in a bottle, verging on the absurd... A portrait of a messy world in which everyone scrape by as best they can, looking for love, for somehting to remember or to forget... Such is life in Tel-Aviv.
