Bliss (Hemda)

Shemi Zarhin, one of the most respected and unique voices in Israeli cinema for over 30 years, presents a moving, tender and wise love story. We follow the life of a couple whose love for each other and their family transcends social norms, financial struggles and their past mistakes. BLISS (Hemda) was filmed before the Israel-Hamas war began, in an area of northern Israel that has been the target of thousands of missile attacks by Hezbollah since October 7th 2023. Featuring the delicate fabric of the population consisting of different groups – Jews and Arabs, religious and secular, immigrants and native born, BLISS (Hemda) tackles the situation in Israel today in an original, human, illuminating way.
