Noam, a closeted teenager in a religious community, discovers that he might not be alone. When he finds a love letter written to his grandfather by another man before the Holocaust, he sets out to find this mysterious person and uncover his grandfather’s identity, as well as his own. Not just a film about being queer or religious, but a beautiful coming-of-age story that portrays a journey of self-discovery and acceptance that all audiences will understand.
