Review of Broken Wings

Broken Wings (2002)
10/10
a touching story
22 November 2002
We Israelis hated our local movie productions for many years. There weren't many movies made in such a small country and the ones who were made sucked badly. Most of the movies were either rock bottom humor comedies or unreliable dramas. "Knafayim Shvurot" is pretty unique. There's nothing "big" in this movie. The story is pretty basic but it's well written. The actors (some of them are in their teens or younger) are doing great job. This movie can touch you in the heart, I promise you that. No matter if you live in Paris, New York,Helsinki or any other place on planet earth. I don't know how many of you out there will get the chance to see it but I surely recommend it. The story is universal... In a few words it's about a family of 4 kids and a mom who lost its father. It's sad, funny , enjoyable and touching all at the same time. With some luck and good marketing this movie will be able to compete for the foreign film category in the academy awards. I'll cross my fingers for it.
