Israel, 2025, 4 minutes, Hebrew with Hebrew subtitles
In the song, Yuval describes loneliness and a desperate need for external validation. Sn a Friday evening, instead of a family Shabbat dinner, he finds himself alone in an apartment in Jerusalem, lying on the bed. He waits for likes and comments, he’s on Grindr, and no conversation leads anywhere. He’s hungry, searching for warmth and closeness, but encounters coldness, indifference, and the void only grows bigger and bigger.
It’s a personal experience, but it also reflects a broader phenomenon among gay men — in apps, in sex, in loneliness. The video is black and white, bleak, drawn from horror aesthetics. Heavy makeup, an empty and lonely Shabbat table, cold transparent plastic suffocating him, a flamenco dancer symbolizing the storm within, and a computer on the Shabbat table.
