The aged founders of a kibbutz in the hills of Galilee in Israel have woken up to find that they have been abandoned. Old and infirm, they are left to fend for themselves after their children sell the indebted kibbutz to the bank. At first, the old-timers wallow in self-pity, but they quickly remember their pioneer spirit and take a stand to save the kibbutz, refusing to act like old Eskimos who go off to die in the snow. This poignant comedy is guaranteed to make anyone feel young at heart.
