The film avoids: "news", exploding Scuds, damaged houses, evocative stills, war style photography, commentary, voice over. Rather it penetrates the walls of the improvised "sealed rooms", and sets a close-up image of the innermost feelings of individuals living in constant anxiety in a bombed city, Tel Aviv 1991. The film is styled as a night cruise, taking the viewer on a real time journey to visit the people, caged in their own improvised plastic sealed territories, waiting to the sound of sirens. Comfortably numb delves into the minute details of surviving the Scuds and the gas that never came, and it discovers the process of readjusting to a new situation. See less
