Mashina: The Machine
April. 04,2011The film documents the members of the "Meshina" band, one of the most prominent bands active in Israel, in their late forties, in the 25th year of the band's activity and in the midst of intense joint creative work that includes a concert tour in Israel and preparations for a new album ("Diamonds in the Sky"). The film reveals the band's relationship with the Israeli music industry, as well as the band's internal politics and the complex professional and personal relationships between its members. This dynamic produces sometimes admirable harmony, sometimes war and many comical situations.

What a waste of my time!!!
A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
