Synopsis

Esther, an American woman, sets out on a journey to Israel in the late 1970s in search of her family's origins and, piece by piece, reconstructs an extraordinary story.
Moviegoers are saying
Critics are delivering a devastating verdict on this period drama adaptation, with multiple reviewers awarding harsh 1-2/10 ratings and comparing it unfavorably to Turkish soap operas and generic TV fiction. While one thoughtful critic found merit in its exploration of family inheritance and Ana Ularu's compelling performance, the overwhelming consensus points to artificial dialogue, cringe-worthy melodrama, and a fundamental lack of authenticity that undermines its ambitious multi-generational narrative.

    #rubbricacineforum Vi risparmio i miei giudizi perché veramente… dico solo che la drammaticità è ai livelli di il segreto o qualsiasi generica serie tv turca💀 Il cineforum sta iniziando a mostrare troppi film discutibili uno dopo l’altro, spero che questa streak finisca…

    Doppiaggio orrendo per un film inutile pieno di clichè e battute che non si capisce se sono ironiche o cringe. Si salvano, forse, le riprese dei titoli di testa e la recitazione di alcuni attori. La parte negli anni 80 è totalmente da dimenticare. Tra l'altro film di una…

    nessun contesto storico-critico sulla questione palestinese – mostrare un film del genere in questo momento storico calls for a critical frame (at least). i picchi di drammaticità fanno la storia, nient’altro.

    אחד הדברים הבסיסיים שסרט צריך לספק זה כנות ואותנטיות והסרט הזה מביא את ההפך מזה, הרגשתי כאילו אני רואה סרט גרוע של נטפליקס, העריכה, הצבעים, אפילו גוון הקול של הדמויות היה מלאכותי. הם המציאו דמות שלמה שלא הופיעה בספר וזה הפך את העלילה לאופרת סבון מעיקה.

    La storia si spalma tra l’Israele degli anni ‘40 e degli anni ‘80. La fotografia distingue le due epoche: calda e patinata quella della memoria, chiara e fredda per il presente. I cliché da cine-romanzo e un trascinamento della vicenda danneggiano gravemente il film che,…
