Assi (Roy Assaf-- God’s Neighbors, Wedding Doll, Matchmaking, Children of Nobody...), a failed actor, returns home to his family after completing reserve duty. Though he aspires to stardom, reality finds him teaching theater at the local high school and putting on a nightly cabaret show at the community center. An offhanded remark to a student suddenly thrusts him into the spotlight—but not for the reasons he had hoped. Also starring Ornella Bess (Children of Nobody), Uri Gavriel (The Ballad of the Weeping Spring) and Albert Ilouz (Gett).

HOSTED BY

Roy Assaf

Since 2009, when his professional career began, the Festival has probably shown more films by the awesome Roy Assaf than any other living Israeli actor: Jaffa, Wedding Doll, Wounded Land, The Kind Words, Children of Nobody, Matchmaking, Matchmaking 2, and now, Cabaret Total, which he also wrote and directed.
