SYNOPSIS

A lonesome Hasidic teen steps out of the gates of Jerusalem’s Jewish Quarter for the first time, alone, in search of her lost cat. In the quiet dark of the Old City, she crosses paths with a red-haired elusive punk girl with no place to sleep. The punk offers to help her with the search. The Hasid agrees. Together, they drift through the empty alleyways—two opposites walking side by side, not quite knowing what they’re looking for. What begins as a simple search becomes something stranger, softer: a meeting between worlds, a glimpse of first love, and the quiet recognition of what each of them is missing.
