The disintegration of the patriarch is mirrored in the lives of his wife and children, creating a mosaic of societal neuroses. Dafna (Assi Levy), David’s wife, seeks solace in escapism, working at a real estate agency selling homes she doesn't believe in, while engaging in a hollow affair. Their children represent the diverging paths of the younger generation: the son, a drifting soldier, suggests a lack of direction, while the daughter, who becomes involved with a radical political group, represents the rejection of her father's established order. The film brilliantly utilizes the setting—a house under constant, futile renovation—as a metaphor for the family itself. They are building an extension, trying to expand their lives, but the foundation is cracking. The noise of construction permeates the soundtrack, a constant, irritating reminder of their inability to find peace or completion. beyond the mountains and hills 2016 m.ok.ru
