Of Dogs and Men
Directed by Dani Rosenberg
Narrative Feature/Drama | Israel/Italy | 2024 | 82 min | Hebrew with English Subtitles
As dawn breaks, 16-year-old Dar (played by actress Ori Avinoam) returns to her kibbutz in search of her missing dog, lost in the attacks she survived just days before. She confronts the aftermath of the massacre in her community, and the horrors etched in the faces of the people around her, while witnessing the stark reality of the tragedy unfolding across the fence in Gaza. Between those who seek revenge and those whose faith in mankind remains unwavering, Dar tries to find her own voice. Dani Rosenberg’s powerful hybrid film blends narrative filmmaking techniques with real-life characters to create a wholly immersive, deeply felt portrait of the Israel-Palestinian conflict from both sides of the spectrum.
