Baaba the Sheep Sets Out to Bring Love to the World
Israel, 2008, 56 min, Hebrew, English subtitles
Itamar Tal is a naive dreamer from a small village and an outsider in this world. As a child he always preferred the company of sheep in the fields to the company of humans. Years later Itamar leaves the fields, moves to Tel Aviv and makes a sheep out of a piece of sponge that he finds. Its head is made of palasticine and its legs of nails. A creature completely lacking in sophistication.
That very simple looking sheep leads Itamar along paths he has never known before, and opens the gates of the global village to him.
