A journey inside Jewish Venice, inside a
universe revealing a hidden part of the city. A kaleidoscope of visions,
images and experiences showing another side of Hebrew culture: impure
ground where tradition melts into personal past life, creating a new
synthesis. The real theme of the film is the never ending process of
building an identity.
