2007 filmnby Shira Geffen and Etgar Keret This article is about the 2007 Israeli film. Jellyfish ( ; Meduzot ) is a 2007 Israeli film based on a story by Shira Geffen and directed by her husband, Etgar Keret .1 The film tells the story of three women in Tel Aviv whose intersecting lives paint a pessimistic portrait of Israeli secular life. Batya, a waitress at weddings, comes across a mute child who seemingly emerges from the sea. Keren, a bride whose wedding Batya worked at, breaks her leg climbing out of bathroom stall and ruins her dream honeymoon in the process. And Joy, a Filipina domestic, attends to her employer with whom she struggles to communicate. Poetic imagery draws connections between the lives of these women, all of whom find solace in the sea. Jellyfish was the winner of the 2007 Camera d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival , an official selection of the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival , and an official selection of the 2008 Telluride Film Festival . The film stars Sarah Adler and Gera Sandler. The DVD release date was September 30, 2008.
