Four weeks of basic training for girls in the IDF: seven girls and two sergeants from different backgrounds (Canadian girl, an immigrant from Russia, Sabra Buckley, etc.)
Set on a modern kibbutz, as the spectre of an Arab invasion lurks in the backgroun,d and financial pressures are breaking down traditional communal values, a series of fragile, interwoven stories mirror this disintegration of collective ideal.
A comical exploration of the 50's in the Israeli Kibutz movement, when socialist values were reexamined following the death of Stalin. With their mentor and iconic leader gone, the members of the Kibutz have to face a political and social reality without a leader to encourage and unite them.
