In the 1970s, Esther (Mili Avital), an American woman mourning her mother, receives a letter that sets her on a journey to uncover a hidden chapter of her family’s history. With the help of Zayde (Ori Pfeffer), a university professor with secrets of his own, she begins searching for a woman who lived in British Mandate Palestine decades earlier.
The woman is Yehudit, whose arrival in a settlers’ village in the 1930s entangled the lives of three men: a widowed father, an idealistic farmer, and a cattle trader. By tying together the threads that bind past and present, Esther and Zayde discover a shocking truth.
