Israeli writer-director Avi Nesher (Turn Left At The End Of The World and The Secrets) adapts Amir Gutfreund’s novel set during 1968 — a year after the Summer of Love, about a teenage boy (Tuval Shafir) hired by a matchmaker (Adir Miller) who survived the Holocaust and has set up shop behind a movie theater that runs only love stories.
