TEL AVIV ON FIRE
\nSamsa Films
\nReviewed for Shockya.com & BigAppleReviews.net linked from Rotten Tomatoes by: Harvey Karten
\nDirector: Sameh Zoabi
\nScreenwriter: Sameh Zoabi, Dan Kleinman
\nCast: Kais Nashef, Lubna Azabal, Maisa Abd Elhadi, Yaniv Biton
\nScreened at: Cohen Media Group, NYC, 7\/11\/19
\nOpens: August 2, 2019 in New York and Los Angeles<\/strong><\/p>\n

Think of the most talked-about rivalry within a country today. Israel has a Jewish majority and a Muslim minority and, to my knowledge, has blessed far too few intermarriages between the groups. In fact if you set up a TV program with a proposed marriage between the clans, you might get little support from either side. But in \u201cTel Aviv on Fire,\u201d such an arrangement is possible because in TV soap operas, anything can happen. Sameh Zoabi, co-writer and director, gives us a light comedy that spoofs soap operas with their far-fetched plots and more importantly treats the possibility of a marriage between a Jewish general and an Arab spy. You might consider this the kind of story that would not gain prominence from either side, but \u201cTel Aviv on Fire\u201d was not only showcased at the 34th Haifa Film Festival but garnered a best actor award for a Palestinian actor. Zoabi is in his m\u00e9tier on the subject of cultural divisions, having directed \u201cUnder the Same Sun,\u201d a story about two businessmen from opposite tribes set up a solar energy company, and \u201cMan Without a Cell Phone\u201d about modernization coming to a Palestinian village.<\/p>\n

In \u201cTel Aviv on Fire,\u201d Salam Abbas (Kais Nahef) serves as a low level movie production assistant living in Jerusalem and working in Ramallah. He\u2019s a good-natured slacker given a job by his producer uncle Bassem (Nadim Sawahlha). He is fluent in Hebrew and charged with correcting the way characters on a soap opera speak. Because of his low status, his ex-girlfriend Maryam (Maisa Abd Alhady) is not interested, which motivates Salam with the goal of impressing her. When a clueless Salam is given the job of screenwriter for the soap, he has his chance to become Maryam\u2019s hero but lacks the talent for writing.<\/p>\n

The soap being satirized, \u201cTel Aviv on Fire,\u201d is lightly anti-Zionist but not to the extent that would alert Israeli censors. The cheesy soap-opera plot finds Marwan (Ashraf Farah) training Tala (Lubna Azabal) to be a spy, to use the name Rachel, and acquire military secrets held by General Yehuda Edelman (Yousef Sweid). The episodes are not yet complete. As Salam is writing, he is stopped at a checkpoint separating Ramallah from East Jerusalem by Captain Assi Tzur (Yaniv Biton), who recalls that the soap is eagerly watched by both Arabs and Jews. The captain grabs the incomplete script from Samar, making his own suggestions and even insisting that the captain\u2019s script be utilized (and his portrait held on a shelf in the background). The captain wants his family to be impressed that he knows how the story will proceed and insists that Tala and Edelman fall in love and marry.<\/p>\n

While this looks as obvious as any soap would be, the entire film is full of surprises, unpredictable right until a sudden coup de th\u00e9\u00e2tre in the final seconds. The entire movie is filled with ironic humor, not the kind that seeks belly-laughs but goes for more subtle, satiric notes. While the entire ensemble performs nicely\u2014probably having to go through may takes as they involuntarily smile at the ironies while acting\u2014you can see why Kais Nahef would take away a best actor award in Venice while Haifa\u2019s 34th International Film Festival tapped “Tel Aviv on Fire” for best film and best screenplay. Nahef exudes authenticity as a loser who turns the tide, winning the respect and affection of his ex-girlfriend Maryam. This is one of the best comedies to come out of the Middle East in recent times.<\/p>\n

In Arabic and Hebrew with English subtitles.<\/p>\n
