Movie Review: Interesting
Summary: 3 Stars
This is an Israelite movie with English subtitles. The movie focuses on the lives of hustlers and prostitutes, both male and females. There are two main characters, Meni and Tal, young guys. After they perform sex with each other in front of a client, Meni and Tal spent the night together and develop feelings for each other. There are gay bar scenes, bathroom sex, drugs, alcohol, strange and violent sexual scenes, an older big lady prostitute.
Meni has a kid with a young woman, who is a prostitute. She has serious mental problems with drug abuse and is also homeless. She shows up at Meni's apartment and they both have lengthy conversations about themselves and their kid.
Meni makes a date with Tal but they never see each other. Meni becomes upset. Tal gets picked by a brutal, vicious, corrupted cop, who becomes his pimp. Tal is beaten up and abused badly, but retaliates by killing him. Meni's old girlfriend drops the little girl with one Meni's friends and goes back to prostitution. Meni tries to talk to her to comeback with him, but she refuses. Meni tries to give his little girl to her parents but they refuse. In the meantime, Tal tries to find Meni but fails and goes back to his apartment and bed, falls to sleep crying. Meni and his friend with his daughter watches a sunrise, and the movie ends.
This movie projects the harsh realities of the world of hustling and prostitution. The cinematography is terrible. It feels like someone with a recording camera went around making this movie. The impression is given that the process of making the movie was not a priority but the subject matter. It is rich in the social issue and again shows that among cultures there is not a whole lot of difference. The movie looks cheaply made.
