The Wonders focuses on the complex relationship between a Jerusalem street artist named Arnav and a mysterious, modern- day prophet held prisoner in an abandoned apartment across the alleyway. Inspired by a true story and using the city of Jerusalem as a character, The Wonders combines genres, moods, and influences—everything from film noir to Alice in Wonderland—to create a unique and compelling film that mixes mystery, comedy, psychological thriller, political intrigue, and romance. As the plot twists, loyalties shift, and revelations flow, Arnav’s life gradually becomes stranger than his art. In Hebrew with English subtitles.
