Unchain My Heart at JIFF - SEVEN BLESSINGS (Sheva Brachot)
About
A boisterous Moroccan-Jewish clan reunites for a cross-cultural wedding that surfaces festering secrets. In early ‘90s Jerusalem, a diverse family celebrates a Moroccan-Jewish bride and French-Ashkenazi groom’s union, infusing the multicultural occasion with joy, laughter, and a host of languages. Yet, as the Seven Blessings ritual unfolds—a week of festive meals honouring the newlyweds—the facade cracks, exposing deep-seated wounds rooted in ancient tradition.Inspired by true events Ayelet Menahemi’s Seven Blessings swept the Israeli Academy Awards with 10 wins, including Best Film and became Israel’s official entry to the 2024 Academy Awards for Best International Feature Film. A tale of relationships, culture, and forgiveness, amid clashing interpretations of shared memories
