Canadian Journalist Ralph Benmergui encounters points of view from all sides, from left-wing peace builders to right-wing settlers. He attempts to reconcile the egalitarian progressive Judaism he practices in Canada with the ultra orthodox minority who would tell him that his own children are not Jewish enough. He will travel through the West Bank and Jerusalem to the hip cafe's of Tel Aviv observing Israel not as a journalist, but as a Canadian and a Diasporic Jew who, whether he likes it or not, is forever tied to this small patch of holy land.
