Storyline:
The movie tells the story of Imri, who at 19 goes to live in Tel- Aviv, but dreams of moving to Japan. Through his relationships and encounters and in diverse cinematic tools, we are introduced to the young man’s life. An exploration of living in the exotic city of Tel Aviv is presented through a hero who is himself in the midst of exploring his own choice of an exotic place. A unique correlation is formed between the hero’s misconception of Japan and ours of him. The movie was constructed by both improvised and pre-scripted scenes, as required by the nature of each scene.
User review:
the movie is fun, fresh and sweet. the main character is absolutely adorable (i think i’m in love, gotta learn more about him), the photography and editing is great, the story is interesting (and convinces that a movie does not have to be in a dramatic structure). i loved the visual freedom the creators allowed themselves, i don’t think it had any of a shock value, but only to portray the main character’s world. i’d love to see the movie again, i’d be very pleased had it been longer (there were moments where we’re lead to believe the film is over and i was always glad it didn’t). i’d also love had they shown more porn, anime and yaoi. the movie inspired me, usually i escape from anything titled “documentary”, i might just be a little more open minded next time after a film like that.
