A Visit to the Parents
My small and once close-knit has fallen apart. My father became religious, my mother converted to Christianity, my sister married a non-Jewish man and now my father hates her and won’t have anything to do with her or her daughters; I escaped all this and fled to Israel. After my divorce, I decided to return to my traumatic past, to my family in Russia, and to try to rebuild my faith in love. Will I succeed in uniting my shattered family?
