About Boy Takes Girl
When ten-year-old Aya is left at a kibbutz where children are housed by age instead of gender, not only does she have to get used to dealing with a lot of children, making friends and enemies, she also has to get used to sharing her room with boys... and sharing the showers with them too.
Directed by Michal Bat-Adam, Boy Takes Girl leans on a strong ensemble — Gabi Eldor, Ilan Dar, Shai Golan — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1982.
