Knox Luke's plot is anchored in the now, and the buzz, but not long ago - it's all here, quite close to us: Tel Aviv - Jaffa, a town south of the country. According to the time and place of these familiar and explosives social and cultural current events, Adaf conceals his story and then breaks them: Secular and religious, periphery and center, authenticity and Puritanism against counterfeiting and license everywhere and more, skillfully chilling (more precisely, only the most - some of them are, deliberately, in a state of the - edge - the explosion) encourages us to experience reading realistic, that is, to experience the fictional world tools emotional and spiritual that we use in our daily lives.

Adaf create this image of a young artist confronts the residual pain of childhood and the traditions unanswered, passed on a complete lifestyle and opaque.
