Keren Yedaya : 2014
Loin de mon père
Moshe and Tami share a modest apartment. But this is no ordinary couple. Moshe is aged 60; Tami is 22, and she feels adrift, restless and irritable. Her only emotional outlets are binging, purging and self-mutilation. Their unconventional relationship is infested with a deep-seated malaise from which she seems unable to set herself free, as if confined in a prison. Moshe and Tami are father and daughter. Tami can do nothing without her father, with whom she lives in this cruel and violent relationship and whose intimidation is so complete that she believes he is the only person who can love her. Loosely inspired by the book Far from his Absence by Israeli author Shez, whose sensitive and jolting treatment of an incestuous relationship made such a deep impression on the director. Keren Yedaya's third feature premiered in the Un Certain Regard section at Festival de Cannes 2014.
