Haim's Story
1h 49m
The moving feature film, directed by Tova Ascher, winner of Best Actor at the Haifa International Film Festival for Yuval Segal, follows the life of Haim Isas'har, a charismatic and multi talented man whose unexpected life turns have left him struggling to make ends meet. Living with his elderly mother and working as a mall security guard, Haim’s past is gradually revealed through encounters with the key figures in his life, including his ex wife, his children, and his young lover. Piece by piece, a portrait emerges of a man who missed opportunities not only because of his own complexities, but also because of the unpredictability of life and the harsh realities of a society that mistreats the vulnerable and lacks compassion in moments of need.
