Israeli co-directors Etgar Keret and Shira Geffen have both written children's books and graphic novels, so it's no wonder that their first feature, Jellyfish, possesses the matter-of-fact combination of the magical and the ordinary that kids take for granted. Batya encounters a lost child who mysteriously emerges from the sea; aging Malka grouses helplessly at her Filipina aide, Joy; and newlyweds Michael and Keren's new bond threatens to unravel after a seemingly minor series of events. And through it all weaves the sea, whose power contrasts wildly with the lack of control these characters exert over their own lives. For an Israeli film, this is no small parable. [Info Source]
