Twelve-year-old Itan’s promising life in San Francisco is turned upside down when she comes home from school, with her younger brother, to find their apartment ransacked and her mother missing.

COLLISIONS is the winner of the Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature at the 22nd Cine Las Americas International Film Festival.
