Sunstroke
"Makat Shemesh" ("Summertime Blues") is the last summer before the army, an early 1980's Tel-Aviv summer, at the dawn of the war (the "first" war) in Lebanon. Four friends are walking on the wild side before life starts walking over them. They have a Rock'n'Roll band and so, they're trying to add some sex and drugs and devour the whole enchilada. It will take them a hot summer to realize how young and naive they still are, how what really turns them on is first love, first heartache and everything in between. "Summertime Blues" is a summer movie - beach, bikes, girls and music, a whole lot of music and a twist of blues.
