Alex is twenty-seven. He sells hash and lives in the shadow of his brother Isaac, who after being his support has become his burden. So when his cousin tells him he's opening a restaurant in Tel Aviv, Alex imagines joining him to finally change his life.
Determined to leave, Alex must find the money and make his Alyah.
But he will also have to leave everything: Paris he loves so much, Esther his old love, Mathias his lifelong friend and Jeanne he has just met.
Caught between his Alyah, the sale of drugs, his complex loves and a destructive brother, Alex will have to find his way.
