Synopsis

Abraham Eidelmann, an old ultra-orthodox rabbi, has a young wife, Esther, and a young son, Menahem. He spends all his time praying, studying the Torah and preparing his sermons. Abraham has not much time to devote to Esther, who craves affection, nor to Menahem, who is awakening to life. But today Menahem is happy. His father has accepted to go to the Dead Sea for their holidays. —IMDb

Interesting look at Orthodox Judaism through the eyes of a young boy, the questionning of one's religious dogma, and the reactions to serious events beyond comprehension.
