Plot summary

Fourteen-year-old Nadav is hopelessly in love with his aunt Nina (Ayelet Zurer), who has recently lost her husband (Hattab). He is caught between the two worlds of his divorced parents: his mother (Waxman) is a high-strung fashionista, while his father (Ben Ari) has recently become devoutly Orthodox and withdrawn from the family in order to join a group of Hassidic Jews who tour Tel Aviv in a van, blasting the word of God through loudspeakers.

gollark: See, I imagined a worse hell!
gollark: How about... anarchocapitalism... but with a state... which levies 1% taxes on everyone... which are used purely to pay people to kill innocent puppies and crush anyone who tries to not be taxed.
gollark: I can imagine worse ones, but (being unironic for a second) it does sound bad.
gollark: Real capitalism has never been tried because we have stuff like a "state" getting in the way of the glorious market.
