Observing an unspeakable crime through a dreamy haze of adolescent confusion, the Israeli drama "Princess" turns a loving family home into an incubator of sexual curiosity.

One Room With A View

A mix of sweet and sour, Princess's exploration into teenage sexuality is an interesting, albeit confused one - although that is surely the point.

Rated: 3/5

It may be that in her first feature, Shalom-Ezer set herself a distinguished, even bold agenda, but the task was beyond her reach.

Deals with a very sensitive issue of stepfather abuse of a young girl at a critical stage of her life. Very well presented and acted by the believable cast.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Confusing and ambiguous - the main goal of the Director. Here, she succeeds perfectly but fails miserably in making a good film about an important subject. A total waste of time.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

This wasn't completely what I expected, with some extremely cringe worthy scenes, and a story that although interesting on how it was told, it was confusing for the most part. However, the performances were very good as well as the cinematography. ~August 20, 2016~
