Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival and Israel’s official submission for Oscar© consideration, this devastating drama begins when Michael (Lior Ashkenazi) and Dafna (Sarah Adler) open the door of their home to army officials who announce the death of their son Jonathan (Yonatan Shiray), “fallen in the line of duty.” While his sedated wife rests, Michael spirals into a whirlwind of anger, only to experience one of life’s unfathomable twists, rivaling the surreal military experiences of his son at the remote military checkpoint nicknamed “Foxtrot.” Filmmaker Samuel Maoz (Lebanon) meticulously explores how historical trauma can echo across generations. Rated R. In Hebrew with English subtitles. Writer/Director: Samuel Maoz. (Israel 2017) 108 min.
