https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/c1/Jellyfish_poster.png/220px-Jellyfish_poster.png Winner of the Caméra d'or at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival, Jellyfish (Meduzot) is a richly imaginative portrait of three very different women emotionally adrift in Tel Aviv, exploring Israeli frames of mind in a unique fashion buoyed by charming touches of magical realism. While Batya, a struggling waitress, cares for a mysterious child that appeared to her out of the sea, newlywed Keren nurses a broken leg and a ruined honeymoon, and Filipino migrant worker Joy tries to support her son back home. With striking cinematography and moving performances, Jellyfish is a witty and warm reflection on making connections and confronting destiny in a deconstructed urban landscape.
