This documentary tells a moving story that connects places and times with a personal story. Menahem Daum, son of Holocaust survivors, is a Haredi (ultra-orthodox) Jew who lives in New York. Menahem fears that his sons, who learn in a yeshiva in Israel, show intolerance and have extreme religious views. He takes his sons and wife Rivka on a trip to Poland in search of the Catholic peasants who hid and saved his family from the Nazis. This is also a personal search outside of religious boundaries.
