Asia is a nurse who is having an affair with a married doctor; her daughter Vika is a teenager who wants a relationship, but is put off by the immaturity of the boy's she and her friends hang out with. From barely acknowledging each other (Asia, left Russia and her daughter's father, who apparently was no bargain), Asia takes care of Vika as the girl's health deteriorates, and they grow closer. Her illness is never mentioned, but it looks like ALS.
It is no wonder this film has achieved such notoriety. A favorite at Sundance, and Israel's submission for an Academy Award, this is an insightful and moving experience. The acting of the two women is simply incredible. Alena Yiv (Asia) is a writer, actor and director; Shira Haas has many fans for her work in the Netflix mini-series "Unorthodox."
It is a movie I want to see again.
