Israeli film Wait for Me is a well-made, atmospheric drama about a teen girl who sails off alone one night destined for Cyprus. The film fills a gap in the coming-of-age adventure genre, which often focuses on teen boys. As Maya's secrets are revealed, her quest takes on a deeper urgency, making the last third of the film increasingly suspenseful. Hallel Yannay Shani delivers a solid debut performance, while Daniel Litman brings energy and charisma to his role as the good-hearted sailor who helps Maya. Wait for Me is beautifully photographed and will likely work better for adult viewers.
