Mix of humor, tragedy, tenderness

Two teenage girls on military duty in Jerusalem find friendship, men and going on the lam are just as important as policing the Arab community in Close to Home. Highly accessible pic, which mixes humor, tragedy, tenderness and political acumen into a well-observed coming-of-age format, reps a very impressive feature bow by writer-directors Vidi Bilu and Dalia Hager. Pic has theatrical chances beyond festivals, plus should get plenty of mileage on Euro TV. |
