Sinopsis(1)
Viviane Amsalem se separó hace años de Elisha, su marido, y ahora quiere un divorcio legal para no convertirse en una marginada social. Los matrimonios civiles todavía no existen en Israel; tan solo manda la ley religiosa, que estipula que únicamente el marido puede conceder el divorcio. Sin embargo, Elisha, no está dispuesto a aceptarlo. Viviane tendrá que luchar ante el Tribunal Rabínico para lograr lo que ella considera un derecho. Así se verá inmersa en un proceso de varios años en el que la tragedia competirá con lo absurdo y absolutamente todo se pondrá en tela de juicio. (Festival Films)

Probably the first Israeli film that stuck in my head for some time after seeing it. That premise has to resonate in anybody, because the Israeli view on marriage is really something I cannot comprehend. The actress Ronit Elkabeth plays perfectly the married character who wants to get a divorce. However, her husband doesn’t want to and makes her life a living hell. To be able to get a divorce she needs her husband’s permission and also the permission of a Jewish court; in either case nobody is on her side. The current practices in Israel truly shocked me. They don’t belong to the western world and the film is great at pointing that law out. It is a film full of dialogue that predominantly takes place in the courtroom and doesn’t let you get bored for full two hours. All you need is to accept the narration mode after the first half an hour and then you just ride along and stare speechlessly…
