Synopse

After an absence of several years, Israeli director Yonatan Haimovich returns home to the apartment house of his childhood. Like the other tenants, his family had emigrated from the Soviet Union in the 1970s. The Russian enclave in which he grew up, in which his parents died, was mostly isolated from the Israeli life surrounding it. In his observations and interviews with the tenants, Haimovich delves into a long-gone immigrant past.
