Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Born in Beershaba in 1964, Ronit was an awkward child who felt she was different from others, but when she became an actress (more or less by chance at the age of 26) with a star role in Daniel Wachsmann's 'Hameyu'ad' ['The Appointed (1990)'], this complex became an asset. This beautiful brunette realized she could relate to the rest of the world by expressing her inner emotions. Since then she has made few films, but many of major importance such as Late Marriage (2001) (by Dover Koshashvili), Alila (2003) (by Amos Gitai and Or (My Treasure) (2004) (by Keren Yedaya), in which she embodies wives, prostitutes or dope fiends marked by life. She has even co-scripted and co-directed the excellent 'Ve'lakahta Lekha Isha' ['To Take a Wife (2004)'] with her brother Schlomi. Both are preparing the second part due to be filmed in 2008, 'Seven Days' [Shiva (2008)]. She was wonderful in the recent The Band's Visit (2007) ('The Band's Visit') as a kind-hearted lonely heart refusing to wilt in her desert town.
