A journey to the Promised Land - a circular journey, across generations, charting the dreams and aspirations of father and daughter. Feeling she should have been born in the homeland, Eve travels to Israel in search of an identity, unaware that her quest will painfully expose her family's hidden history. Her father Jack's story is of London in the forties - a time of idealism, political terrorism and conflicting values.

In their separate ways, both confront the discord between collective ideals and personal needs; both must make their choices and live with them. This is their story - an honest and evocative account of what it means and feels to be Jewish in the modern world.
