Tamás is an aging boxing coach in present-day Budapest whose relationship with his son, Iván, has frayed to the point of estrangement. After converting to Orthodox Judaism, Iván moved to Israel, where he had a son, Ariel, whom Tamás had never met. Iván and Ariel have returned to Budapest for the funeral of Tamas’s wife, forcing father and son to face one another. As they sit shiva, father and son are not just obliged to face their old grievances but to help Ariel deal with his own grief and obsession that grandma’s spirit is still in the house. Told with delightfully biting humor and genuine warmth, this is an unforgettable story of a Jewish family on the winding path toward reconciliation.
