Young Faigi lives with her husband, Naftali, and his parents in a Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) community. Married for four years but still childless, Faigi and Naftali yearn for the pregnancy that Naftali insists will come through prayer, not medical intervention. When an unspeakable act turns Faigi’s life upside down, raw emotions cause this once docile wife to question her place within the narrow confines of the only culture she has known. Beautifully photographed and acted, this haunting film offers a complex look into a community that reveals little to the outside world. Starring Mili Eshet, Yoav Rotman, and Ilanit Ben-Yaakov.
