The rebellious teenage daughter of ultra-Orthodox Jewish parents journeys into the secular world in Apples from the Desert, a successful adaptation of an award-winning Israeli play that poignantly explores themes of love and reconciliation.
一個叛逆的少女,及一對猶太教正統派的父母,踏上前往世俗社會的旅途。《荒漠中的蘋果》為盤旋在愛與和解,廣受好評的以色列電影。
Rebecca Abravanel 是生活在耶路撒冷塞法迪猶太家庭的獨生女,生活猶如與世隔絕。在嚴苛的家庭和社區傳統中,她卻打破禁忌,在外參加的舞蹈班中與世俗的 Kibbutznik Dooby 互生情愫。她的父親因而大為震怒,更打算強加 Rebecca 一段不相稱的婚姻,對方是年邁喪偶的父親,並已育有一子。縱然 Rebecca 的媽媽和姨姨亦為驚詫,仍不敢反抗一家之長的威權,Rebecca 亦因而離家出走。
在愛情、親情和信仰之間,他們有體諒與和解的可能嗎?
