Un descanso verdadero

Israel, just before the Six-Day War. On a kibbutz, the founders of Israel and their children come to terms with their land and with each other. The messianic father exults in accomplishments that had once been only dreams; the son longs to establish an identity apart from his father; the fragile young wife is out of touch with reality; and the gifted and charismatic "outsider" seethes with emotion. Through the interplay of these brilliantly realized characters, Oz evokes a universal drama.
