Synopsis

Reverberations of the holocaust continue to shape the lives of Jewish women in this three-part drama. The first story centers on Rivka (Shulamit Adar), who can’t find the strength to leave her insensitive husband. In the second story, Regine (Liliane Rovere) learns that the father she thought was killed in a concentration camp is alive. In the last tale, Vera (Esther Gorintin) travels from Moscow to Tel Aviv and makes an important new friend.
