JAFFA (2009) D

Israeli,
Subtitles, Hebrew

Stopped watching after 20 minutes. Appeared to be poor amateur production . . . long pauses, unexplained and unclear action and relationships.

From Netflix:
In the Israeli city of Jaffa, an Arab father and son -- Hasan and Taufik -- work at a garage owned by a Jewish family that includes the pretty Mali (Dana Ivgy). But the tensions simmering beneath the surface of the genial workplace are about to come to a boil. A secret affair between Mali and Taufik has grave repercussions when Mali becomes pregnant in this gripping drama, an official selection at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.
