Love and death in Hendon, 18 June 2009
4/10
Author: paul2001sw-1 (paul2001sw@yahoo.co.uk) from Saffron Walden, UK

A dying mother, religious instruction, hidden lusts and family secrets define this drama about a rather unhappy Jewish family living in north London. The drama has few words and a low budget feel, but some artistic thought has clearly gone into creating it. Yet I struggled to understand what the film was really supposed to be about. Why was the mother dying, why had the son left, what was the origin nature of the characters' religious faith? - the film gave hints that there were answers to these questions, but left too much unexplained to excite my interest or make me care for the protagonists. A movie doesn't need to spell everything out; but if everything is left mysterious, it's hard for the viewer to relate.
