Just before the series in question “Third Body” premieres today (Monday) on Keshet 12 channel, the actress Rotem Sela who played alongside Yehuda Levi As a couple trying to bring a child into the world, she talks about the connection to her character. Sela shared on social media: “In a strange short time, but life is like life, very few times a character gets under your skin. Pains you. And for a period of time it is her and she is you, and you know her. You feel her in every part of your body. Eli was that character for me. She was my best friend and my family member and just acquaintances at work who shared what they were dealing with for many years. Maybe that’s why the journey to become her was so shocking.”
“She gave me a lot of sadness and a lot of pain and also a lot of strength and most of all she got into my soul. I am dedicated to all the women somewhere for whom the path to having children was not easy. Who went through experience and more experience, who already thought yes and then no, who hoped that this time it would work but another one came A disappointment and another one, which burned their souls. I hope you sit at home today and feel that in a certain sense Ellie is telling your story. Even if with slight changes.”
“Thanks Shira Hadad, Dror Mishani andShay Capon You gave me the right to tell her story. She was a piece of the journey for me. And precisely in this period, a reminder of how much power we women have. We are a complex, fragile and powerful creature. We have sensitivity and compassion, inclusiveness and gentleness, courage, determination and wisdom and all these elements together create the wonderful creature that we are. I wish we would remember that all the time and never believe anyone who tells us otherwise.”
