A Group Portrait with A Woman

After being forced by tragic circumstances to put her only daughter, fathered by a Muslim Bedouin man, up for adoption, an Israeli woman returns to Israel many years later to find her lost child. She soon finds herself along with her director friend in an unusual cinematic creation of her life, a voyage that covers three decades and a number of countries and encompasses oblivion, survival and loss. Her loves, her escapes, and the men in her life all serve as an echo to that one fateful act. In an unusual manner, the heroine finds herself facing, as if in a Greek chorus, a re-examination of her life.
