At thirty-seven, Miri is a twice-widowed, El Al flight attendant. Her well-regulated existence is suddenly turned upside down by an abandoned Chinese boy whose migrant-worker mother has been summarily deported from Israel. The film is a touching comic-drama in which two human beings -- as different from each other as Tel Aviv is from Beijing -- accompany each other on a remarkable journey, one that takes them both back to a meaningful life.

The life of some homeless teenagers in Tel-Aviv, many of them homosexuals. Seventeen-year-old Maggie decides to leave her father and rural life behind and make her way to Tel Aviv. She ends up in a commune, living with Yuval, Ellie, and Daniel – three young queer men from the furthest fringes of Tel Aviv’s nightlife scene. The tensions between the three may be palpable but that does not stop the flatshare from being a home to all its residents – whether permanent or transient.
