Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Israeli desert towns like this one were often built quickly in the 1950s-60s to settle remote areas, creating accidental ghost towns of forgotten people.
Sinai based the film on real conversations with older women in peripheral towns who spoke of profound physical isolation after divorce or widowhood.
