Frozen Days (ימים קפואים, Yamim Kfu'im) is a 2005 Israeli indie film.A young girl goes through life squatting apartments in Tel-Aviv, selling drugs for a man known as ‘Schultzi’, and chatting in chatrooms for fun using the name ‘Meow’. After her motorcycle is stolen, she arranges a meeting with a man named Alex Kaplan she chats with; after some stumbling, she gets him to meet her at a club she sells her product at, but, this being the Second Intifada, the club is bombed before they can meet.Having taken his keys from his apartment earlier, she moves into his apartment, slowly assuming his identity and avoiding having her true identity revealed. Slowly but surely, weirder and weirder things start happening to her as a result...The film was nominated for two Ophir Awards for Best Actress (for Anat Klausner who played Meow) and Best Shooting, and one the Best Feature Film in the 2005 Haifa Film Festival. Klausner co-won (with actress Asi Levi) the Best Actress award as well. | |

Obstructive Bureaucrat: The bureaucrat from the police would not return Meow’s stolen motorcycle without a proof of identity, despite the policemen knowing her name and where to find her and the fact that she had the keys to it. Meow is very upset by this. | |

Nosy Neighbor: Subverted. The neighbor who greets Meow as ‘Ms. Kaplan’ turns out to be merely polite and have no idea who Alex Kaplan really is, having never spoken to him before, and not really caring who Meow really is; she just addressed her that way because she saw her living in his apartment and taking his mail every day. | |

Pronoun Trouble | |
| Frozen Days / int_7b7f90d5 | comment |
Pronoun Trouble: In Hebrew, second-person pronouns, most verbs, and all adjectives also decline by gender. Meow is very unsettled when she goes ‘back’ to work as a guard in ‘Azrieli as ‘Alex’, and the rest of the guards act as if she’s always been Alex, even addressing her as a female. | |
