Eldad is about to go abroad, but changes his mind at the last minute. Instead of going home to Jerusalem, he disguises himself and takes a cheap hotel room in Tel Aviv. There he meets the receptionist Judy who he makes believe he'll marry so she can go to American with him and get a working visa there. In another disguise he is mistaken for a deaf-mute Arab and joins a group of them both at their Israeli construction site and back in their village.
This was Haim Bouzaglo's first feature and unfortunately it remains his best by far (that's at least my opinion). It is undoubtedly one of the best Israeli movies made in the 80's and it deals with lots of political issues current then in local films in a refreshing, comic-absurd way with additional existential undercurrents.
It remains Shlomo Bar aba's greatest role as the middle aged man in crisis who starts living 2 (or is it actually 3?) concurrent lives in a way that reveals a whole lot about Israeli-Palestinian societies at large. You might've seen this talented actor in Cedar's "footnote" that was nominated for the foreign film category in the oscar (and is in the tracker, highly recommended), though here he has a much more varied role.
