This insightful and visually stunning documentary follows a Colombian Orthodox Jewish family’s difficult quest to leave their home country, where Jews are rare, and immigrate to Israel to make Aliyah. As they dream of fleeing local gang violence and homicides, they also prepare for a new set of challenges as their journey to Israel draws nearer.
