2012 JFilm Festival
Pittsburgh Premiere
Director: Alon Zingman
2010, Israel, 90 minutes
Hebrew and Spanish with subtitles
Four stories converge in this gripping Israeli drama that begins at dawn: a young woman returning home is met by her father at the airport; a duty-free shop employee finishes her shift and learns life altering news; and an Argentinian woman boards a bus with her young son for his circumcision at a Tel Aviv hospital. The three stories become four when a hit and run accident inadvertently weaves the plots together at dusk. Very much like the American film CRASH in style, DUSK features textured performances from some of Israel's best actors. Adult content.
