Action

Criticism
" Conventional, too predictable road movie with a lot of Balkan folklore, vacillating between the grotesque and the sentimental family reunification. "
" Almost effortlessly succeeds Eran Riklis, the change between tragedy and comedy, seriousness and absurdity. [ ... ] A little distracting sometimes the Ostklischees of abandoned villages with their disillusioned population, but fortunately Eran Riklis Pats not worry too much in the folk Kusturica trap. [ ... ] So Eran Riklis has this time a slightly lighter weight, but still worth seeing movie with quirky and emotional bays rotated, which fits quite well in the cinemas autumn. "
" Eran Riklis told by " The Syrian Bride "and" Lemon Tree " again from the crossing emotional, national, political and personal boundaries. Based on A.B. Yehoshuas novel he designed the conversion of a man who has to deal with unexpected situations and grows on them. The tragedy of the five " Ophir " ( the Israeli Oscar) winning road movie contrasts the director again and again with hilarious scenes, dry humor and an almost unimaginable absurdity. The images of lost people in more winter scenery and especially the solidified inner sadness in the face of Mark Ivanir over the rarely slides a smile, impress themselves into the memory. "
