Four separate stories deal with stereotypical ideas about Jews: their alleged influence on politics, the stereotype of Jewish business-mindedness, the Mossad, the Jewish world conspiracy and the memory of the Holocaust.

Based on true events, this story is set in the 1970s in Jerusalem. Yaakov Elbaz, recently released from prison, is recruited by the police to infiltrate the Black Panthers, a protest group consisting of Sephardi Jews (Middle Eastern Jews). Initially serving as a mole, Elbaz gradually becomes involved with the group and begins to empathize with their ideals. His growing connection to their cause leads him into a dangerous double game that threatens to ruin his life.

The series, loosely based on the true story of the assassination in Dubai of a senior Hamas official Mahmoud al-Mabhouh - the co-founder of military wing of the Islamist Palestinian group Hamas on 19 January 2010, revolves around five ordinary Israeli citizens who discover one morning via the media that they are the principal suspects of a high-profile kidnapping and are implicated as culprits in the kidnapping.
