The Attack (2013)

An honored Arab surgeon, practicing and living in Tel Aviv, has his world rocked when his wife is killed in a terrorist attack. It gets even worse when the police suspect that his wife was actually the bomber, not a victim.

We are on his journey with him as he tries to figure out what happened -- if his wife is who he thought she was, someone completely different, or something in-between. My emotions were pulled along with his as I wrestled with how he was treated in his search for the truth.

It's a smart film about a difficult subject that doesn’t tie up with a pat answer.
