I have never seen an Israeli serial before. This is absolutely awesome. Beats the best of Hollywood or other American serials any day. It took a little while to get used to depending only on subtitles and not on the actual dialogue. But after that it was a thriller at its best. Having said that, if this is a real reflection of life in Israel and Palestine, we should be glad with smaller and unimportant problems that bother us in our ordinary lives.
