The Last Click
In the 1980s, The Click was a successful punk/new wave band that sang anti-social and political messages in Hebrew. After releasing two albums which are considered iconic in Israeli counterculture, with songs like "Ima Ani Lo Rotze Lehigamel" ("Mom, I Don't Want to quit"), "Al Tadliku Li Ner" ("Don't Light a Candle for Me"), and "Incubator," The Click broke up. Thirty years later, when they are in their late 50s, The Click members gather to embark on one final journey, to do one more thing together before it's too late.
In the documentary film "The Last Click," Dani Dothan, the film's co-director, and lead singer of The Click, reunites the legendary band that disbanded in 1984. Dani wants to return to the stage, to protest. But what are the chances for those who were in their twenties and now in their fifties to revive their music, to do something new and real? The film follows the band's rebirth while the past continues to break in, to sabotage and discourage. "The Last Click" is a film about friendship and music, about attempting to close a circle. It reveals the power of the songs and the fleeting relationships that were formed among the band members, the hopes and the disillusionment, the conflicts, and the sense of missed opportunities for the once young rebels who destroyed what they had, now knowing this is their last chance, this is the last click.
