BODY

A very interesting and unusual film. A combination of crime, confrontations, and fights with spirituality, depth, psychology, and humor. Strangely enough, it leaves a feeling of kindness and purity by the end. Thank you!

When Sabaleh looked at Sean like he was his kid for a second… damn. It’s those quiet pauses, not the guns, that hit the hardest. I didn’t expect to tear up, but I did.

It excels when it embraces its absurdity and slows down just enough to let its themes breathe. At times it leans too hard into style over substance, but the performances keep it grounded. Especially Sabaleh — tragic, tired, and impossible not to care about.

Felt like a stoned Pulp Fiction mixed with Snatch but through a Tel Aviv lens.

I laughed at the squirrel tattoo story, then five minutes later I was like, ‘oh no, this is gonna get dark.’

BODY plays like a tragicomic spiral — starting as a dark buddy film, drifting into existential farce, and crashing into genuine heartbreak. The tonal shifts are gutsy and not always smooth, but they reflect the characters’ instability. Sabaleh is a walking wound — and the film knows it.
