[edit] Trivia

  • In the second minute of the film Tamar, by mistake, presents herself as Corinne (the actress real name).
  • In the switch kissing scene on Allenby Street Corinne was suppose to kiss nimrod, who actually did try to kiss her, but (as in real life) she refused, and therefor Zuker had kissed her and then the switching sequence was conceived.
  • Maayan magazine is called after the name of this film's narrator - Maayan Strauss.
