Product Overview

In his sophomore feature, Israeli auteur Samuel Maoz furthers his filmic exposition on the psycho-emotional reverberations of war across generations. A contentious work that critiques (and was, in turn, condemned by) its country of origin, Foxtrot is challenging cinema – and challenges us to dig more deeply into notions of nationalism and division, writes Anthony Carew.
