Things I Remember from Summer 2004

As the media is reporting about terrorist attacks, 9 year old Ya’ara sets out on a road-trip with her family to the desert. The year is 2004 , these are the times of the second Intifada. This is a mysterious coming-of-age film, which centers a family stuck on the edge of a cliff trying to stick together despite the sense of dread in the air. It's a semi-biographical story that attempts to depict the sense of beauty and instability of growing up in a dysfunctional family, during one of the most violent and volatile years in Israel.
