Shikun is a film set in a multipurpose building where various segments of Israeli society come together. People of different languages, origins, and generations struggle with today's circumstances through theatrical encounters. With a metaphor inspired by Eugène Ionesco’s famous play "Rhinoceros", some start turning into rhinoceros, others resist. The film explores the formation of intolerance and totalitarian thought in individuals while narrating daily events that take place in a social building on the edge of the Be'er Sheva desert.
Shikun is an ironic metaphor for living in our modern societies. The film has a structure that attracts the attention of the audience and allows them to watch the transformation of the characters. Some viewers have stated that they better understood the differences and conflicts in their own societies after watching the film.
The film was shot in the city of Be'er Sheva in Israel. The platform on which the film was released has not been specified.
