Mazel Tov, David!

David, a 25-year-old Czech architect, receives an unexpected invitation from his former best friend, Klára, to her Jewish wedding in France. What seemed like a great way to rekindle their friendship turns out to be a "wedding from hell." Old wounds are reopened and doubts arise. David, who now navigates various aspects of his life—from enjoying queer parties to spending tense time with his family to joining pro-Palestinian protests in the streets—can’t forget how Klára abandoned him when he came out as gay. Klára feels he abandoned her and the rest of the Jewish community when she met the love of her life in Israel. This irreparable rift finally forces David to move on with his life. He leaves the confines of his family's apartment and finds hope that he can fall in love.A lze změnit to, jak nahlížíme na minulost? Mazel Tov, David! je citlivé melodrama, které se snaží zkoumat rozpad komunit, které se ocitají na okraji společnosti.
