Synopsis
A story of three sisters - Cali, Darel, and Asia - who gather in the Israeli coastal town of Atlit to sell their late parents' house in 1995. As they spend time together, their relationship is tested by resurfacing tensions and unexpected visitors who bring both chaos and joy to their lives. Set against the backdrop of the promising peace process, their story takes a dramatic turn when Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin is assassinated on November 4. Despite this devastating blow to peace prospects, the sisters maintain their hope for a better future.
The story interweaves personal family dynamics with pivotal historical events, exploring themes of sisterhood, reconciliation, and resilience during a critical moment in Israeli history.
