Magical Chairs
Israel | 2024 | 21 Min. | Hebrew | Documentary
Five elderly women take part in a theater class at a local community center. They gradually open up, finding kindred spirits with whom to share the pain of losing a spouse, of suffering dementia, or preparing to leave behind a special needs child. They observe fading childhood memories and confront the final stages of life.
