Blush (2015 Film)
Blush ( - "Barash") is a 2015 Israeli drama film about teenage lesbian girls. It was written and directed by Michal Vinik, starring Sivan Noam Shimon, Jade Sakori and Dvir Benedek. The original title was ''Barash''. According to film researcher Raz Yosef, the film is part of the discourse of LGBT rights in contemporary Israeli cinema. In contrast to films such as '' Yossi and Jagger, The Bubble'', and ''The Secrets,'' the film offers "new ways of being in the world, life and relationships based on queer temporality that are not necessarily founded on past lessons or future expectations, but rather derive from the desire for the 'here and now.'” Film critic Uri Klein finds that the film serves not only as a portrait of a single Israeli girl in distress but also places this portrait within the broader context of a disintegrating Israeli family.https://www.haaretz.co.il/gallery/cinema/movie-reviews/2016-06-16/ty-article/.premium/0000017f-dc82-db5a-a57f-dcea78b60000 Plot Naama (Si ...

2010s Hebrew-language Films
1 (one, unit, unity) is a number, numeral, and glyph. It is the first and smallest positive integer of the infinite sequence of natural numbers. This fundamental property has led to its unique uses in other fields, ranging from science to sports, where it commonly denotes the first, leading, or top thing in a group. 1 is the unit of counting or measurement, a determiner for singular nouns, and a gender-neutral pronoun. Historically, the representation of 1 evolved from ancient Sumerian and Babylonian symbols to the modern Arabic numeral. In mathematics, 1 is the multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number. In digital technology, 1 represents the "on" state in binary code, the foundation of computing. Philosophically, 1 symbolizes the ultimate reality or source of existence in various traditions.

Evaluation of the year Richard Brody of '' The New Yorker'' described 2015 as, "one of Hollywood's worst years" but also stated that it was also "a terrific year for movies over all". He emphasized that, "The anticipated Oscarizables have mainly ranged from the blandly enjoyable to the droningly disastrous. Partly, the problem is merely one of scheduling: most of Hollywood's inspired directors, the ones whose images have a natural musical sublimity and complexity, weren't on call this year. My list reflects the unfortunate accident of a calendar year with no release by many of the best American directors working in or out of th ...
