The House on Chelouche Street	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The House on Chelouche Street is a 1973 film from Israel directed by Moshé Mizrahi.The setting is Tel Aviv, 1947-48. A family of Egyptian Jews has immigrated to what is still the British Mandate of Palestine and settled, living in a cramped apartment. The father died six years ago, and his widow Clara is working as a maid and attempting to support a family of four. The central character is Sami, Clara's oldest child, a 15-year-old boy. Sami is an extremely bright teenager with a seemingly limitless talent for languages, but he has had to drop out of school and get a job at a machine shop because his mother's wages simply aren't enough to support five people.Sami resents his mother for making him drop out of school, even if there really wasn't his choice. He begins spending time at the library, where he makes the acquaintance of Sonia, the very pretty librarian who happens to be ten years older than he is. His mother for her part is being courted by Hami, an older man who has a chicken farm. Meanwhile, there is the small matter of civil war in Palestine, the end of the British mandate and the formation of the state of Israel, and the 1948 Israeli-Arab war.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

The House on Chelouche Street / int_52196c03	comment	Age-Gap Romance: 25-year-old Sonia invites 15-year-old Sami to her apartment, where she starts to send out all sorts of mating signals (one time she comes out of her shower wearing nothing but a robe, and the robe isn't tied all the way either), and inviting him over to read whenever he wants. Eventually he kisses her and they have sex. There's a strong Double Standard; while any movie would be guaranteed to show a relationship between a 25-year-old man and a 15-year-old girl as very wrong, in this film Sonia and Sami's relationship is shown as romantic and a part of his rite of passage.

The House on Chelouche Street / int_5313c266	comment	Bookends: The first scene of the movie has Nissim greeting some old coot named Shimon sitting on a stool outside. Nissim asks how it's going, and Shimon says "It's all bullshit!" The last scene has Shimon sitting in the exact same place, and having the exact same conversation word-for-word, this time with Sami.
