Israel’s premiere actor, Assi Dayan, gives a captivating performance as Itzhak Grossman, whose Tel Aviv family is growing increasingly cut-off from itself. His father, whom he hasn’t spoken to in years, lies dying in the hospital, his son is too depressed and stoned to see beyond his job as a pizza delivery-boy, his eldest daughter is slowly realizing she’s a lesbian and his wife is about to reveal all family secrets in her debut art exhibition. Meanwhile the barely-adolescent youngest daughter, Didush, tries to bring her family back together, by asking the questions no one wants to answer. Things Behind the Sun is an impressive first feature film of great depth and solid ensemble performances.
