Pink Lady
Synopsis
In an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community in Jerusalem, Bati has a seemingly perfect life. She is happily married to Lazer and the young couple have three children. But their world starts to crumble when 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.
After “Here we are” (Cannes 2020, Official Selection), Nir Bergman (writer of “In Treatment”) follows a young modern woman’s journey to self discovery and liberation, in a touching and uplifting comedy drama.
