(Eytan Fox, Tzvika Pik, Adi Goldstein, Ivri Lide) Ido Rosenberg, Alon Levi, Maya Dagan
Acclaimed Israeli director Eytan Fox (YOSSI & JAGGER, THE BUBBLE) brings to life a modern fable with a catchy musical message and a story based on the songs of Israeli pop legend Svika Pick. Miriam (Maya Dagan) is an adoring fan of Svika Pick (who appears as himself). She dreams of being a famous singer, leading her to mysteriously abandon her son Meir (Ido Rosenberg) on his tenth birthday. Both Meir and his best school friend Shuli - who happens to be a beautiful girl - have their eye on the same gorgeous guy. But despite worthy distractions, Meir never stops searching for his mother, eventually moving to Tel Aviv and becoming famous as a drag queen named Mary Lou. The songs never stop coming as Meir/Mary Lou discovers he needs to find himself even more than his mother.
More thoughtful than Glee and as spirited as Mama Mia, Mary Lou is a top-notch musical with a serious message. The film features the ebullient music of Svika Pick - who composed the Eurovision award-winning song Diva, made famous by singer Dana International.
Eytan Fox's new drama Mary Lou was produced by Dana Eden and Shula Spiegel for Dana Productions and Hot. Mary Lou was released in Israel as a four part television series and garnered the equivalent of the Israeli Emmy Award for best miniseries in 2010.
