Shelter is an Israeli drama movie that tells the story of two women, Naomi (played by Neta Riskin) and Mona (played by Golshifteh Farahani), who share a shelter during a missile attack on Tel Aviv. The movie showcases the different worlds that these women come from, their struggles, and the unlikely bond that forms between them. Naomi is a middle-aged Israeli woman who lives in Tel Aviv with her husband and two children. She is an architect and a successful businesswoman, but her life is not as perfect as it seems. She is unhappy in her marriage, and she feels disconnected from her family. On the day of the missile attack, she rushes to the shelter close to her office and meets Mona, the owner of the shelter, who allows her to stay there.

Mona is a young Palestinian woman who lives in Ramallah with her husband, Tareq (played by Yehuda Almagor), and their young daughter. She owns the shelter, which is a small store that sells gas masks and other protective gear. When she hears about the missile attack, she rushes to the shelter to make sure that everything is in order. But when she arrives, she realizes that she forgot the keys to the shelter and is unable to get in. She breaks the door open, and as she is sitting inside, Naomi walks in.

The two women are initially wary of each other, but as time goes by, they start to open up to each other. They realize that they have much in common, despite their different backgrounds. They talk about their families, their dreams, and their fears.

Naomi is looking for a way out of her unhappy marriage, and Mona encourages her to take control of her life. Mona, on the other hand, is struggling to keep her business afloat, and Naomi offers to help her. Naomi uses her connections and expertise as an architect to help Mona revamp her business plan and come up with new ideas.

As the missile attack continues, the two women become inseparable. They share their food, blankets, and stories. They also help each other deal with the anxiety and fear that comes with living in a warzone. They come to rely on each other, and their newfound friendship gives them hope for a better future.

The movie has a powerful message of unity and hope, and it is a timely reminder that even in the darkest of times, people can come together and make a difference. The performances by both Neta Riskin and Golshifteh Farahani are outstanding, and they bring depth and empathy to their characters.

Overall, Shelter is a touching and thought-provoking movie that explores the human condition in the most challenging of circumstances. It is a movie that will stay with you long after you have watched it.
