Synopsis
Dasi, a young woman who has left the ultra-Orthodox world, seeks out her beloved son Zeevi, from whom she has been estranged since her departure from the faith. Hoping to share a meaningful moment, she meets him in a secluded park to celebrate his birthday and gives him a pair of walkie-talkies as a gift.
But as their brief reunion unfolds, the depth of the alienation and the ideological indoctrination Zeevi has absorbed becomes heartbreakingly clear. This is an intimate story of maternal love, identity, and the heavy price of choosing a different path.
