Written and directed by Noam Kaplan, The Future is set
in a near-future Israel where a scientist, Dr. Bloch (Reymonde Amsellem), has developed a programme to
identify potential terrorists. When she fails to predict a young
Palestinian woman's (Samar Qupty) assassination of a politician, Bloch visits the
woman in prison, leading her to question the path she's embarked
on. Dar Zuzovsky also stars.
The Future will receive its world premiere at the Tribeca
Film Festival on June 11th.

The official synopsis reads:
At 42, Dr. Bloch (Reymonde Amsellem), a profiler, wants a child. A future. Her only way is to find a surrogate mother. At the same time, her groundbreaking algorithm designed to identify individuals planning to carry out terror attacks fails and a young Palestinian woman (Samar Qupty) assassinates the Israeli minister of Space and Tourism. In order to ‘fix the bugs’ in her algorithm, Nurit faces the assassin in person. The sessions between these two brilliant women raise questions about their past, while the sessions between Bloch and the potential surrogate (Dar Zuzovsky) challenge Bloch’s decision about her future.
