Kiev. 1989. On a seemingly regular day, eight-year-old Max’s life is about to change in a way that he could not even imagine. Max faces a dilemma that nearly overwhelms him. Would he agree to undergo a secret circumcision, as an important step toward their immigration to Israel, or to listen to his instincts – even in the price of disappointing his beloved father.
