Point of Info re Valentin (the MD)

Just a note so people catch it: Valentin (the doctor who used to live in California) is actually a Russian immigrant & not a native Israeli. Tho it doesn't come thru in the translation, you know this from his accent plus the fact that he's always making weird little grammatical mistakes.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for confirming it. I thought as much, even though I speak zero Hebrew. I had the distinct impression that he was speaking differently from the other characters, and knowing that there are so many Russian Jews in Israel it wasn't a big stretch for me to figure that he wasn't a native Israeli.

Não sei onde eu estou indo, mas sei que estou no meu caminho.

If he's really your uncle, tell him he's a great asset to Israeli movies. He's our Depardieu.
