Haifa, 1979. After repeated disputes, the extended Ohayon family tries to mediate between Viviane (Ronit Elkabetz) and Eliahou (Simon Abkarian) – two people with nothing in common except for their religious-cultural background and their four children. Over the course of several days, the couple quarrels over tradition, love, fears, and progress.
Siblings, Ronit and Shlomi Elkabetz’s debut film which kicks off the trilogy that also includes Seven Days (2008) and Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem (2014), introduces viewers to an Arab-Jewish Israeli family in the late 1970s. This moving drama won two awards at the Venice Film Festival and the Best Actress award at the Jerusalem Film Festival.
