Film Developing & Printing

scene, Yosef takes Nissim to
a Jewish community center
for a work-out. A playful
swimming contest becomes a
primal battle between broth-
ers, a Jacob and Esau test as
Yosef loses control and tries,
momentarily, to drown
Nissim.
While the younger brother
becomes more familiar with
America, and perhaps a bit
more at ease with himself and
Israel, the older brother con-
tinues down the path of false
freedom. Yosef thinks he is
getting ahead, laying the
groundwork for his future
success, even a triumphant
return to Israel. Instead, he is
ignoring his wife, giving his
doting daughter gifts but not
time, and letting his credit
cards take him deeper into
debt. When Yosef's wife,
Rivka, issues an ultimatum,
he still refuses to choose be-
tween his desires and his
family's needs, between Israel
and America until he is faced
with an ultimate decision.
Lev's story is believable, his
main characters — the broth-
ers and their parents — are
fully realized. His ear for
dialogue, especially among
the Lvov family members, is
accurate. Some scenes, in-
cluding a birthday party for
Dorit, the brothers' fight at
the pool, Shabat dinner with
Miryam and Barukh, and
Barukh's stroke on a Haifa
beach, are memorably por-
trayed.
Yordim does have some
stylist weaknesses, however.
The first half moves a little
slowly, and some of the secon-
dary characters remain just
that, moving and sounding a
little like supporting figures
in a made-for-television film.
These drawbacks, however, do
not undermine Lev's success.
He has captured, in an easy-
reading style, the dilemma
and the anguish of Israelis
who leave Israel. In doing so
he has probably struck a
universal note as well. In
many respects Yordim could
be the story of any people
moving from a culture and
country they know, leaving
family, friends, a familiar
physical and mental terrain
behind for a new land and
hopes of a new life.
As a novel, Yordim makes
interesting reading. It does
not — and does not pretend to
— detail the sociological
causes behind a singular,
disturbing exodus, the volun-
tary flight of Jews from the
land of Israel. (For that
reason, the book's title is
misleading.) Lev says his se-
cond book, now in progress,
will deal more with that.
Meanwhile, he has made a
solid start.
