| Summary: | *MASH* meets *Girls* in Talya Lavie’s sharply observed debut film ZERO MOTIVATION. At a remote and dysfunctional military base deep in the Israeli desert, the female clerical staff are at the centre of the action.

Winner of Best Narrative Feature and the Nora Ephron Prize at the **Tribeca Film Festival**. Winner of 6 Awards of the **Israeli Film Academy**, including Best Director, Best Actress (Dana Ivgy), and Best Screenplay. "*An engaging, desert-dry, feminist-minded comedy ...* " - Brad Wheeler, ***Globe and Mail*** |
