Cinema on the Roof: YES

29.07. YES, Drama
F/D/Isr/Cyp 2025 | 151 minutes, directed by Nadav Lapid

Shortly after the October 7 massacre, an Israeli pianist attempts to win the favour of the wealthy elite. When tasked with composing a new, combative national anthem for an oligarch, he risks collapse under the weight of betrayed ideals. A sharp satire that uses expressive performances and experimental editing to first caricature the nationalist wing of society, then transforms at the Gaza border into a reflection on Israel's deep divisions. An ambitious, multi-layered film that embraces theatricality and unsparing critique. - Ages 16+.
