Yes!
From Thu 13 to Wed 19 NovTel Aviv, the day after October 7. Y., a precarious jazz musician, and his wife Jasmine, a dancer, sell their art, soul, and body to the highest bidders, offering pleasure and consolation to a country in pain. Soon Y. is given a mission of the utmost importance: to compose a new national anthem. In this blistering new film, presented at Cannes this year, Nadav Lapid (Ahed’s Knee, Synonyms) delivers an absurdist tale of a couple tested by political principles—or the absence of them—in the aftermath of October 7.

The screening on 13 November will be followed by a Q&A with director Nadav Lapid moderated by Philippa Kowarsky
