9:00pm: The Monkey House

Amitay, a once successful novelist, tries to revive his fading career in hopes of impressing Tamar, whom he has loved since childhood. Through a highly inventive scam, he recruits a reckless actress and trains her to assume the somber identity of a literature master's student.

Competing narratives collide with the truth, resulting in life-changing consequences for all. A moving blend of literary mystery drawn from real events, this light comedy and an endearing character study has something for everyone.
