Tehilim / Psalms
In today's Jerusalem, a Jewish family leads an ordinary life. But following a car accident, the father mysteriously disappears. They all deal with his absence and the difficulties of everyday life as best they can. While the adults take refuge in silence or traditions, the two children, Menachem and David, try in their own way to find their father.
Rahphael Nadjari, Israel/France 2007, 96 min, 35mm, Hebrew with subtitles
About the title Tehilim
Tehilim, the Psalms are poems, songs, teachings and meditations attributed to King David. They form the centerpiece of Jewish liturgy. Tehilim is supposed to accompany Jews in their daily lives, on every occasion: marriage, birth, joy, sadness, grief or despair. It is a text for both the humble and the powerful ; it is the story of a complex and terrible human struggle and a form of exemplary redemption that we are supposed to read and question like an inspiration, hope and reference.
