Footnote

Israel – Joseph Cedar – 1 hr 43 min w/subtitles

A highlight of recent Israeli cinema, FOOTNOTE is a compelling drama about battling father and son scholars in Jerusalem. The father is an underappreciated purist, while his son is a rising star. Then one day the father appears to have won the country’s most prestigious award and the tables are turned. Or has a horrible mistake been made? A wry satire about family and academics.
