Nino and Dudu are buddies, teenagers interested in going to the beach and finding good parties. But that’s where their resemblance to typical teenagers ends. Fleeing violent homes, Nino and Dudu survive on the streets of Tel Aviv's Electric Garden district by turning tricks and dealing drugs. Living in graffiti-covered squats or crashing wherever they can, Nino and Dudu have become survivors much older than their years.
Award winning short tells the story of two brothers who plot separately for some after-school fun before mom comes home.
Local filmmaker, Garth Bardsley, will be in attendance for a panel discussion with the audience and members of an LGBT youth organization. A cocktail reception will follow.
