Sheifa Lehaim plot

Dov is 75 years old and a widower. He lives in a nursing home where he feels like he is in prison. He dreams of buying back his old house and living there again, but he has run out of money since he lost his pension and he blames the state. When he realizes that everyone in the nursing home is consuming state-sponsored medical cannabis, he finds a way out. Not by smoking it, but by selling cannabis, which he gets from the other residents. When love, the police and the local mafia come into play, Dov finds himself at a crossroads where he must decide if he's willing to risk everything for what really matters to him.
