Pink Lady

Dir. Nir Bergman
106 min

In an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in Jerusalem, Bati (Nur Fibak) has a seemingly perfect life. She is happily married to Lazer (Uri Blufarb), and the young couple have three children. But their world starts to crumble when the gentle Lazer is blackmailed, and Bati discovers his secret affair with his male study partner. Desperate to protect her family and keep the man she loves, she supports Lazer as he attempts to “cure” his homosexuality, whilst uncovering her true desires. Screenwriter Mindi Ehrlich, who drew on her own experiences within the Hasidic Jewish community for the film, brings a freshness to the subject by focusing on the female perspective of events. Ultimately, Bati learns more about her own needs than those of her husband. –AS
