Both Israeli coincidentally.
The first was Eyes Wide Open directed by Haim Tabakman which is a closely observed story of a strictly orthodox Jewish butcher in Jerusalem who falls in love with a young (male) Yeshiva student, the two have an affair. It's extremely powerful and very sad. Festival de Cannes - From 12 to 23 may 2010
I highly recommend it, went to the cinema to see it on Saturday, it's extremely beautiful.
And the second I've been meaning to see for ages and ages its Waltz with Bashir directed by Ari Folman Waltz with Bashir
It's so important a film I can't believe I took this long getting round to see it, extremely emotive and should be shown in schools in my opinion. One of those movies which will stay with me for a long time.
If you haven't seen either of these movies then get to it. :wink:
