Synopsis:
In Avignon, Ana, a woman of Dutch and Israeli descent, meets her adopted brother Uli, who is of French and Israeli descent. Even though he lives in Israel, he came to France after learning about their father’s death. They attend the funeral together and at the reading of the will they find out that their father requested she make contact with her abandoned daughter. The only thing Ana knows is that she lives somewhere in the Gaza Strip, so she sets off on a trip to Israel with Uli.
