Goldberg & Eisenberg

Goldberg is a slight, bespectacled man who leads a solitary life. As an unremarkable computer programmer residing in Tel Aviv, he devotes much of his time to scouring the internet in hopes of finding a romantic partner. His sole companion is Audrey, his cherished dog. In contrast, Eisenberg is a burly, somewhat unhinged thug nearing middle age. He spends his time loitering in Meir Park, where he intimidates passersby and engages in shady dealings with minor criminals. Fate brings these two together, and Eisenberg decides they should start spending time together. However, his intentions seem to go beyond mere friendship. This narrative explores the unsettling encounters with strangers that breed anxiety and paranoia, the isolation of urban life, and the loss of control.
