Plot Synopsis
Featuring the first cooperation between Israel's acclaimed actor Moshe Ivgy and his no less impressive daughter Dana Ivgy. Goni's world came tumbling down when she was a child of seven and she is still trying to put it back together again 20 years later. She grew up as an only child, spoiled and loved in a theatrical family living a life of glamour and back stage frenzy. Her father lost his reputation, his pride and his desire to live after serving a short prison sentence when she was a child. Then with the death of her mother Goni had to supply all the emotional support for her father. As the film moves between these two time periods we meet Goni today as a beautiful and strong young woman fighting back at the establishment that ruined her father, despite her desire to get away from him and live her own life.
