Ve Lakachta Lecha Isha

Haifa, 1979. On Wednesday night, Vivian’s seven bro-thers gather in order to persuade her not to divorce her husband, Eliyahoo. Eliyahoo would have liked to preserve the customs of the old traditional world of Morocco, from where they came. However, unhappy Vivian, wife and mother of four children, would have liked to live a new life in modern Israel. Hairdresser for friends and neighbours in her apartment building, and has cold, confrontational conversations with Elyahoo. Vivian and Eliyahu are estranged. Twenty years of mar-riage and raising four children together cannot alter that. A claustrophobic portrait of a loveless marriage held together in a vice of religious and social convention which takes place in Israel of the late 70’s.
