Longing (2017 film)

Longing (Hebrew: געגוע) is a 2017 Israeli comedy-drama film[1][2] directed by Savi Gabizon.

It was screened in the Contemporary World Cinema section at the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival.

Ariel (Shai Avivi) meets with his ex-partner Ronit (Asi Levy) at a restaurant about twenty years after they broke up.

Miki also tells Ariel where Adam’s school was, and Ariel goes there and meets the principal, Amnon (Shmuel Ben Ari), who informs him that Adam was expelled after writing an obscene poem about the French teacher on the wall in front of the school.

Ariel visits Adam’s grave, and at the cemetery, he befriends Gideon (Yoram Toledano), the father of Abigail, who suffered from depression and committed suicide at the age of 18.
