SYNOPSIS:

Anat, a schoolteacher whose private world is shaped by language and imagination, is counting down to her son Ido’s army discharge. On the day he is due home, a soldier is abducted on the Lebanese border and a new war erupts. When Anat discovers that Ido has volunteered to fight, their bond begins to fracture. Trapped between a father destroyed by war and a son rushing toward it, she makes a radical maternal choice that challenges not only her family, but the logic of war itself — just before Ido crosses into Lebanon.
