After marrying and moving to London to be with him, her life is shattered when he disappears and she is forced to find her way back to Israel under a false identity as a Jewish woman. Tova Ascher, a longtime film editor, created her first feature film around an intriguing storyline, taking the audience from 1987 into the present with a young Arab woman, Nadia, who falls in love with a young PLO militant in their Jerusalem hometown. Along the way, the young women befriend a Christian anthropologist, the Arab owners of a Muslim Quarter hostel, Israeli soldiers, and a man who wanders the Old City calling himself King David - each of whom has his own complicated connection with religion, death, and the afterlife. Written and directed by brothers Yoav and Doron Paz, the fast-paced film invites its audience to join best friends Sarah and Rachel on a haunting journey around and beneath the diverse quarters of the Old City. The ancient city and its biblical apocalypse are shown entirely from the perspective of Sarah’s new, high-tech Google Glass “smart glasses,” giving the film a disorienting, real-life quality.
A modern horror movie set in the Old City of Jerusalem, JeruZalem follows young American tourists, Sarah and Rachel, as they encounter, on the eve of Yom Kippur, a zombie apocalypse in the gated city.
