Ha-Ushpizin plot
"An Orthodox Jewish couple's faith is tested after praying to the Lord for a child on the Succoth holiday."
The film shows a week in the life of Moshe and his wife Mali, who converted a few years earlier and live in an ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Jerusalem. On the eve of the Sukkot festival (in which people commemorate the exodus from Egypt through the Sinai desert by staying in self-built huts and receiving guests) they have hardly any money to fulfill their religious obligations. When by chance they receive a large sum of money and two guests -'ushpizin' is Aramaic for guests - show up in their hut, their luck seems to have turned. But the two, old acquaintances from Moshe's dark past, have just escaped prison and have no intention of adjusting to Moshe's new way of life.
