Nominated for nine Israeli Academy Awards, this epic tale traces the lives and loves of Jewish triplets born in Egypt in 1942. Sisters Rose (legendary actress Gila Almagor), Flora and Yasmin move to Israel, where personal dramas consume them. Throughout the film, the three sisters take turns visiting Rose’s daughter Rucha to videotape their memories. Soon, secrets are revealed and old ghosts are dug up in an effort to reconcile and forgive. Lush cinematography and the hypnotic vocal talents of Miri Mesika come together to make this a feast for the senses.
