About Death of a Poetess
A delicate, poetic cinematic work, consisting of two parallel axes. Lenny Sadeh is a Tel Aviv based scholar who passes through the last day of her life. Yasmin Nasser, an Arab nurse who lives in Jaffa, is interrogated by the police. The worlds of these two women meet for a critical moment and bound together inseparably.
Directed by Dana Goldberg, Efrat Mishori, Death of a Poetess leans on a strong ensemble — Evgenia Dodina, Y. Goldberg, Samira Saraya — 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 2017.
