Reviews

By NunzioGiannatelli

This must see comedy-drama has elements of romance and action. Set in an Israeli-Georgian family, it provides a comic portrayal of primitive family values. For this reason some may find scenes exaggerated, offensive or discriminative. Whilst exploring traditional values and family dynamics, it deals with themes of cultural clashes. Viewers are warned that some scenes are also explicit, including one which shows two men's penises. However, such nudity is comic rather than sexual. The same applies to a scene in which Ronit Eitan's hairy vagina is clearly visible when she lifts up her skirt whilst wearing no panties.
