Lost Islands
Underwritten by Carmela and Sam Gill

This is a film about growing up, relationships, and the special difficulties of Israeli life, circa 1980. In the Levy family, there aretwin brothers, the outgoing of whom is favored by his mother, and the shyer one, who is largely ignored by her.  As time passes, the brothers fall for the same girl, and their destinies are transformed forever when one brother is forced to stay at home to care for his father while the other is called to war. It’s a unique portrait of Israeli life with all the laughs and tears of an engaging family drama.
