The father: a 78-year old Greek Holocaust survivor, adventurer, and magician contemptuous of religion.
The son: a devout, insecure Hassidic musician. In this Israeli film, Avraham wants to go to Greece to find the boy who gave him shelter during WWII.
Much to Avraham's dismay, his family insists that his son Yehuda join him on the journey. The two meet Maria, a Greek prostitute; the unlikely trio attempts to locate Avraham's childhood friend. This is an ambitious and poignant portrait of family relationships, the divide between religious and secular worlds and the coming together of cultures.
