Review by okpilak

Adar is on the cusp of womanhood, at age 12 (actually amazingly played by 19 y/o Shira Haas) and lives with her mother, Elma, with her mother's boyfriend, Michael. Elma works hard at a hospital, and Michael was fired, but didn't care. The early scenes are Elma and Michael being far too amorous for being seen by a young girl. Adar skips out on school, and is in danger of being expelled, but it is rationalized that she is too smart for the school. Adar meets a young homeless boy, whom she invites to stay with them. I would suggest not viewing past the hour point, as the film really takes a very dark turn. Words to describe the overall film are unsettling, unwholesome, disgusting, creepy and that really applies to Michael, and add in groomer. It is not super explicit, just difficult to watch to the end. The performances are very good, just difficult subject matter.
