A compelling drama that delves into mystery and human connection. Set against the sweltering backdrop of Afula, far from Tel Aviv's hustle, the film follows a 41-year-old police officer adjusting to life in a quiet town. Her routine is shattered by the disappearance of Orly Elimelech, a magnetic army widow and former beauty queen, raising a troubling question: why isn’t anyone searching for her?

As the investigation unfolds, the officer’s relentless pursuit of the truth pushes her to cross personal and professional boundaries, unraveling secrets hidden beneath the town’s calm exterior. Winner of the Grand Prix at the Reims Polar Film Festival, Highway 65 is a masterful blend of suspense and emotional depth, offering audiences a gripping cinematic experience.

Join us for a dessert reception (6pm) following the movie, catered by Lilah Events (Zahav Group).
