Plot summary
After the death of their parents, Filmmaker David Fisher feels that his family has grown apart and that his siblings are focused on their careers and relationships with their spouses and children. Fisher believes that a search for their sister, who was allegedly taken from their parents at birth, will help them bond. Fisher and his four siblings, whose parents were Holocaust survivors, set out on a journey that deals with both family dynamics and the history and establishment of the State of Israel. The siblings become amateur detectives, searching for any evidence that might lead them to their sister.
It is a story of five siblings looking for a lost sister who end up finding themselves.

The film was shot on Standard-definition television and a 35mm print of the film was made. The film was produced for Noga Communications Channel 8 with the support of The New Fund for Cinema and Television (NFCT) and the Israeli Film Council.

In 1999 before the film was released, and as part of the production of the film, an imaginary composite portrait of the missing sister was published in the daily newspaper Yedioth Aharonoth. The portrait was composed of the common characteristics of the five Fisher siblings and was issued as an attempt to draw the attention of the missing sister, if she was indeed alive as was suspected by the Fishers.
