All Eyes Off Me
Synopsis
At a party in Tel Aviv, Danny is looking for Max to tell him that she’s pregnant with his child. Wading through a haze of drugs and promiscuity, Danny does not get far in her search. Meanwhile, Max is busy with his new girlfriend, Avishag. He attempts to satisfy her rough sexual fantasies, but Avishag instead turns her attention to another burgeoning relationship with an older man.
In these three, loosely connected vignettes, director Hadas Ben Aroya’s second feature film proves to be an atmospheric exploration of a self-possessed generation of young Israelis. Though beautiful, confident, and sexually liberated, All Eyes Off Me addresses the physical limits of intimacy, questioning just how liberated these youths really are when faced with vulnerability.
