Hanna and Franklyn are a perfect Jewish
couple who desperately want to have a child of their own, but can't.
A young woman from Iowa, pregnant and God-fearing, offers them to
adopt her baby. Just before the adoption papers are signed, the
couple realizes that she doesn't know they're Jewish. Fearing that
this may put the adoption in jeopardy, they decide to pose as
Lutherans—but how far are they willing to go to have a family?

In this fiercely romantic drama, Hannah and Zvi are reunited after divorcing twenty years earlier. Raised in
Jerusalem's ultra-Orthodox Mea Shearim, the couple ended their
marriage when Zvi turned his back on Judaism and Hannah did not. Now
the teenage children from their second marriages have become
romantically involved, forcing Hannah and Zvi back into each other's
lives.

Premičre
The Liebermans are typical Canadian secular Jews. The Noys
are typical Israeli secular Jews—and now, neighbours to the Liebermans.
Differences of mentality and mannerism lead to tensions, but when their
children fall in love with each other and with Judaism, the parents find
that they have much more in
common than they thought.
