ONE WEEK AND A DAY REVIEWED
“One Week and A Day” is about Eyal and Vicky mourning their son. Eyal has taken some medicinal pot from his son’s hospital room and has decided to sit shiva like a boss. When the pot runs out, Eyal meets a new neighbor that could fill the void left by his son. Vicky doesn’t want anything to do with this, but the neighbor wants to help. Also, there’s more pot.
I’m getting into Israeli cinema way more in 2017. Sure, “Lemon Popsicle” and “The Last American Virgin” will always be the standards. I just wanted to take a chance and explore what the country is producing today. While this film is pretty typical for older relationship dramas, it reaches across the aisle. I appreciate that and I hope you find it at an arthouse or VOD service near you.
