Clementine is an intensely personal, fascinating and colorful film by the creator of the popular Green Dumpster Mystery. Tal and Ravit are expecting their first child. At the same time, Tal’s grandmother is dying of cancer. The filmmaker explores these two opposing forces–birth and death–by taking a journey through generations of his family history, a journey which mirrors the growth of the State of Israel. Reflecting on the past leads the filmmaker to confront the legacy he and his wife want to pass on to their children.
