His great sacrifice - no wife, no kids, no life outside of writing - seemed to have paid off. But his next two novels are flops and soon publishing houses lose interest in his output, while academic circles dub him a mere literary footnote. Amitai's inevitable midlife crises is particularly acute as his life's work seems have amounted to nothing. Desperate times call for desperate measures. The usually aboveboard Amitai feels that he has no choice but to put together a master plan, a perfect crime if you will, that will restore his fame and resurrect his fortune. Beautifully shot, with wonderful acting, the film examines Israeli society with irreverent humor and thought provoking vision.
