Eve and director Amir Har-Gil set out on a journey in which they document her family's life including her mother Nava who after being abandoned by her husband keeps a day job in a kindergarten and a night job as a cleaner; her brother Itzik who serves in an elite combat unit of the IDF; her sister Sari who begins to recognize the socio-economic gap between herself and her classmates at her new junior high school. Eve offers viewers an intimate account of her life which includes a temporary move to a Kibbutz, confronting students who ridicule her social status and her falling in love with a South African man about to leave Israel, and her, behind. In her sharp-witted manner, Eve confronts the prejudices immanent in Israeli society against lower classes and Mizrahi communities. Using a realistic 'direct cinema' style, the film unfolds the family's daily routine and reveals the caring relationship between the mother and her two daughters and her continues attempt to shield them from the deprived position they have in capitalist Israeli society See less
