A sentimental father-daughter dramedy rooted in Holocaust memory follows an observant Israeli son who travels to Budapest to reclaim a fabled wartime ring tied to his mother’s survival. Arnon, a driving instructor who’s gone adrift, persuades his estranged daughter Alma, whose coming out he never fully accepted, to join the search for the ring that had saved their family. As they contend with bureaucratic hurdles, antisemitism, unexpected generosity, and memories from ailing matriarch Violetta, the first steps toward reconnection emerge. Drawn from his family history and written and co-directed by lead actor, Adir Miller, this gently affecting journey blends humor and quiet heartache as a father’s quest becomes a chance to reweave a family story frayed by hurt and time.

WHY THEY LIKE THIS FILM: One of the most engaging Holocaust-related films which has won awards at many festivals. Great character development, plot twists, terror, and humor. Inspired by true stories with the real-life heroine present at the end.
