Summary:

"Why are we pushing and shoving when we stand in lines? How can some of us get to business meetings wearing flip-flops? What taints us with racial bigotry? Why are we always improvising? How come we create instant intimacy with strangers, rage on the road, hang our national flag anywhere imaginable? Is this all part of our DNA, or perhaps a result of post trauma? Alex Levak, press photographer, Ayelet Dekel, director and Prof. Gad Yair, sociologist, head out on a journey to check all that's so unique and special in the Israeli street scene. A fun yet profound cinematic ride into the heart of the public zone in Israel"--Container.
