Movie Reviews:
* « In those saturated moments of human truth that the film is so rich with, it reaches unusual extreme heights. » Meir Shnitzer / Maariv daily newspaper
* « This nostalgic and painful film brings together one of the most tragic sagas of Israeli history with it's own tragic end.
It is the story of the betrayal of the body; the expiration of an idea; a reminder of our naive era, just before the big explosion of  blind nationalism. » Gidi Orsher / Galei Zahal radio station
