After his
longtime business partner dies in questionable circumstances, Jacob
Fidelman (Sasson Gabai) discovers that his antique restoration shop is
also at death's door, as is his withering relationship with Noah, the
scheming son who wants to sell the business. Salvation may come in a
neglected but valuable 1882 Steinway piano discovered by Jacob's
handsome new apprentice, Anton, who also is in love with Jacob's very
pregnant daughter-in-law. The beautifully crafted plot lines and
exquisite nuances of this modern Israeli family drama remind us about
what we value, and what's worth restoring.
