Dr. Pomerantz (2011)

Directed by Assi Dayan

Overview

Doctor Yoel Pomerantz is a washed-up, self-loathing psychologist who lives on the 12th floor of a high-rise with his Aspberger’s son, Yoav, who spends his days pretending to be a traffic cop and proudly giving out parking tickets.  Dr. Pomerantz sees a few patients a week, barely enough to keep he and Yoav in ramen noodles and with a roof over their heads. In addition, he works shifts at a suicide hotline. When he gets desperate financially, he recruits hotline callers to see him privately, which is discovered and results in his getting unceremoniously fired.

Length 88 minutes
