God's Neighbors (2012)

Plot

In Bat Yam, Israel, a trio of young men—Avi, Kobi, and Yaniv—take it upon themselves to enforce strict religious codes, targeting women’s attire and Shabbat observance while keeping Arab music out of their neighborhood. Their blend of admiration and fear from locals fuels their aggressive tactics to impose their beliefs. The arrival of Miri, a newcomer unaware of their rigid standards, complicates matters for Avi, who finds himself drawn to her while grappling with loyalty to his violent gang. The struggle between love and fanaticism forms the crux of this gripping tale.
