a| The Garden is a desolate section of Tel Aviv where young gay prostitutes and drug addicts gather. It's a territory for the dispossessed and for pickups, drug deals, and clashes with the law. The film follows a year in the life of two young men who have made the Garden their home: Nino, a 17-year-old Palestinian, in and out of jail and reformatories; and Dudu, an Arab-Israeli destroying himself through drug addiction. The filmmakers, ever mindful of the trust they have earned, create a powerfully honest film, affording Nino and Dudu the respect and dignity that are all too often denied them in their daily lives. Against the backdrop of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and the unease and ridicule still directed toward homosexuals, the two friends depend on each other for security and love. A poignant film that does not try to numb the pain or reduce the loneliness, Garden is ultimately about longing and belonging, and the elusive meaning of home.
