A Strange Course of Events

With enough strife to deal with at home, nebbishy hospital worker Shaul (Ori Pfeffer) was quietly dreading having to head to Haifa for a few days spent with his long-estranged father (Moni Moshonov) and his dad’s insufferable, New Age-y girlfriend (Michaela Eshet). After he’s laid up by an unexpected comic calamity, Shaul surprisingly finds himself coming to terms with his family issues. Contemplative comedy co-stars Bethany Gorenberg, Maya Kenig. 100 min. Soundtrack: Hebrew Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English. In Hebrew with English subtitles.
