Binding, The

Binding, The

Binyamin (Like Me star Yoav Keren) lives by himself in a small apartment in the center of Tel Aviv. He moved there after he came out of the closet, having faced opposition from his family, who live in a small settlement in the Israeli desert. Being away from them allowed him to detach from the accidental death of his older brother, for which Binyamin feels responsible. His lifestyle, made up mostly of dangerous one night stands, begins to change after he forms a relationship with his boss Avinoam (Shimon Mimran), the middle-aged owner of a local pub. A religious nationalist, Avinoam is a charismatic person who uses his powerful words as a weapon. Under his care, Binyamin feels like he's finally found a safe space... until an unexpected event will change his entire life. From Eyal Kantor, the director of Like Me, The Binding is an electrifying gay thriller dripping with danger and homoeroticism.
