EPILOGUE

The requiem of a common journey composed by the heroes themselves: Hayuta and Berl, an Israeli elderly couple, the last of the Romantics, fail to adjust to the modern age. They live in a small appartment, surrounded by memorabilia – the remains of a lifetime. They stand for a generation of intellectuals who dreamed of better days. The society they live in will soon collapse – and so will their aging bodies. Alienated and miserable, they feel detached from an ever-changing world. A touching portrait of an era, filmed in a delicate fashion, demonstrating excellence in the use of the language of the medium. The couple’s journey towards the end brings to the fore virtues and morals undermined by rapid social changes.
