Lior Raz (Fauda) stars as Shalom Gottlieb, a former partisan leader and factory foreman in an Israeli working-class neighborhood in 1954. Eva (Rotem Sela, Beauty and the Baker) is a beautiful seamstress who arrives in town with her daughter. For Shalom, she represents a chance at happiness and a life filled with beauty and laughter. But rumors of her past as a Kapo during the Holocaust shake the community, and Shalom’s desire to be with Eva betray both his family and the fellow survivors living in the neighborhood. Amidst these swirling suspicions, he is determined to discover the truth.
