    • Synopsis
    • Alongside caring for his elderly father, Ronen offers guided tours of famous terror attack sites throughout his native Jerusalem, even as they continue to haunt him. When he meets Asia, a former Jerusalemite, his struggle between the conflicting forces of life and death comes to a head. As he falls in love, Ronen must come to terms with his past and the ultimate fragility of life itself. A dark romantic comedy that harkens back to an era when violence was a daily phenomenon.
