Good or Bad, Black and White

About This Movie

So, Good or Bad, Black and White dives deep into the lives of Ethiopian immigrants in Israel, right? It's a gritty documentary that doesn't shy away from the harsh realities faced by its subjects. The pacing is a bit uneven, which, for some, adds to the raw authenticity. There’s this palpable tension throughout, reflecting the struggles of cultural integration. You really get a sense of their hopes and disappointments. The black-and-white aesthetic gives it a stark, almost haunting quality. The performances—if you can call them that—feel very real, almost like you’re eavesdropping on their conversations. It’s distinct because it doesn’t romanticize; it just presents. Definitely a film that lingers with you long after.
