Synopsis

Rachel, a religious, single woman in her forties, gets a lift from Haim – a secular farmer, married and father of six. This encounter leads to the birth of Yair.

Thirty years later, hoping to understand the secret affair that brought him to this world, Yair takes two separate trips with his parents: his dad takes him on a pleasure cruise, while his mother flies with him to the Ukraine.

Yair is now exposed to two completely conflicting narratives, which make up one story – funny, whacky, full of lies, grandeur, wretchedness – and love.
