QUOTES
“Ayelet Bargur's film, Day by Day, is one of the best Israeli Documentaries I have seen. It has depth but is exciting as well and full of emotion. The Protagonists stay in the observer's mind as complex, multi-dimensional people and the relations between the homeless people and the social institutes which attempt to take care of them, are transformed into a touching human comedy. I recommend this picture with all my heart ”.
