    • 1995. With the peace process in full swing, Cali travels to Israel to meet with her sisters, Darel and Asia, and
      sell the house they grew up in. A piece of paradise in Atlit, set in the middle of olive groves. They quickly start
      quarelling and old tensions resurface. Their parents, Zack and Mona, insist on having their say : four years
      after their deaths, they randomly appear to fix the electricity, offer marriage counseling and generally weaken
      their daughters’ resolve regarding the house. A mysterious Arab boy’s visits and Yitzhak Rabin’s sudden assassination
      cause the sisters to further question their motives. What will become of this house in a country where the
      future holds no promise of peace ?
