Movie7.0DramaYosef, a math student at the Hebrew University, shares his parents’ story with friends on Mount Scopus. In the 1920s, Yaakov and Chava immigrated to establish the Beit Gilboa kibbutz. They worked hard, danced the hora, and sang “Telem” after plowing. Their love disrupted the communal life, facing opposition from friends like Shmuel. Kibbutz secretary Yitzhak and shepherd Avraham supported them, allowing them to live together in a tent. They married and had a son. A puppet theatre performed “The Story of Balaam,” leading them to feel cursed and return to Germany, where they perished. Their son Joseph reached Europe with Avraham’s help and was welcomed back to the kibbutz, which funded his studies. As the country developed, Zionism turned the curse into a blessing.

Whenever something "improper" does happen, Clara's way of handling it is simply to shove it under the carpet and ignore it completely, as if it never happened. 3 basic rules, are, of course: 1.

As one may expect, everything crumbles when her niece gives her no option, but to break at least one of those rules
