KEYNES HALL, KINGS COLLEGE
Set primarily in the fashionable Sheinkin Street district of Tel Aviv, the story follows three left-leaning 20-somethings (two men and a woman) whose notion of political action is to hold a “rave against the occupation.” But when Noam (Ohad Knoller), a sweet-natured music-store clerk and reserve soldier, meets a handsome Palestinian named Ashraf (Yousef Sweid), their escalating affair forces everyone to face reality in the cruelest possible way.
Squeezing a lot of conflict — sexual, ethnic and intellectual — into its 117 minutes, “The Bubble” is a fascinating portrayal of how identities interact in the Middle East.
