The depressing atmosphere was fitting the movie and I do think it was important to understand the way things are being treated in this family, but the movie missed either a closure or some kind of a saying. Even if the purpose of the film was to say that sometimes life just doesn't have any solutions, resolutions, or a closure, I still think that a movie of this kind should not leave out a progression of a plot.
I enjoyed most of it - but on the other hand I think it's a miss.

It is noot hard to understand that the average rating of this film is quite low. For it is kind of, that goes against the prevailing trends. But it is extremely beautifull movie. One of few that spares dialogues, but speaks with silence. Congratulations.
If you're the type that thrives on sorrow and abject misery, then you'll probably enjoy this. utterly, utterly depressing.
While this is not my type of drama, I watched it because it was filmed in Israel. So I loved seeing the scenes of Tel-Aviv and out in the mountains. It's a story of a father and daughter who are on completely different paths and seem to never communicate with each other. I felt the depiction of families in Israel was very accurate, love, caring, and pain.
The film can be summed up with 3 words: sitting, silence and talking. And that's about it. There is barely any drama in this film. You don't feel attached to any of the characters. The lead actor, who plays the father, seems like a monotone lifeless cardboard cutout. He shows virtually no emotion. And his daughter is much the same. It's a tragedy that there are so many directors who haven't got the foggiest clue how to make an engaging film even when they have a low budget. You won't miss anything if you don't watch this film. Your time would be better spent watching something like cat videos instead.
