Omer’s Mother
Liri and her mother, Elinor, seem less like mother-and-daughter and more like co-parents of Omer, Liri’s younger brother. After a suicide attempt by Omer, the three arrive at a psychiatric unit to have him hospitalized. Elinor, upset by what she witnesses at the hospital, drags all of them away for some family time in the nearby mall. In attempt to create a facade of normality. While the mother is in denial of Omer’s condition, it’s up to Liri to take on the mother’s role for the three of them.
