 Walk on Water - Movie Review (LaLehet Al HaMayim, To Walk On Water, Walking on Water )
Hyper-macho, reactionary Eyal has difficulty accepting Axel's liberal attitudes, open homosexuality and sympathy with Palestinians - but when he follows Axel to Germany to attend his father's 70th birthday, Eyal discovers that there is a lot that both he and Axel have to learn from each other, as their rôles undergo a dramatic reversal.
In a pivotal scene in Eytan Fox's 'Walk on Water', Eyal sits in a motel restaurant in Germany with Axel and describes how, as a sick game, Israeli students on German exchange trips would confront randomly selected old people with the question: "Where were you when my family was burned at the camps?".
For a film set in three starkly different countries (Turkey, Israel and Germany), featuring five different languages (Turkish, Hebrew, German, English, Arabic) and combining an 'odd couple' plot with espionage and intrigue, 'Walk On Water' is a strangely lacklustre affair, with a bland visual aesthetic that would not be out of place in a telemovie.
