Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Sea of Galilee in 1956, Soda tells the powerful story of Eva, a seamstress whose arrival in a close-knit community of Holocaust survivors sets off a storm of emotions and questions. As whispers about her past as a possible Kapo during the Holocaust spread, Eva finds herself at the center of a moral conflict. This heart-wrenching narrative explores love, redemption, and the scars of history that refuse to fade.
Featuring performances by Lior Raz (Fauda) and Rotem Sela (Beauty and the Baker), Soda captures the essence of human resilience and the complexities of forgiveness. Directed by Erez Tadmor, the film has already earned critical acclaim, receiving multiple nominations at the 2024 Ophir Awards.
