Love in Suspenders

Love in Suspenders
A Film by: Jorge Weller
(Israel, 2019, 98 min, Hebrew, English subtitles, Cast: Yehuda Barkan, Nitza Shaul, Shlomo Bar Aba, Michal Yanai)

So it happens that Tammy, a 64 year old widow who constantly deals with the memory of her loving late husband, meets Beno, a 70 year old sarcastic lone wolf widower – and the two fall in love.

From their first unfortunate encounter, when Tammy hits Beno with her car until they unite in front of the altar, Tammy and Beno experience all sorts of emotional, funny struggles. They get closer, break up, get back together and fight again, until ultimately their love wins out.

Shlomo Bar-Aba gives a heartwarming performance as Tammy's late husband, who refuses to let her go in a cinematic tribute to Jorge Amado's Vadinho in "Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands".
