Yair, a Yeshiva student, opens an electronics shop in “Geula”, a neighborhood that is the shopping epicenter for the entire Ultra-Orthodox community in Jerusalem. The religious character of the neighborhood is enforced by the “Geula Committee” and Yair strictly adheres to their rules. His shop is introducing a world of advanced technology that overnight becomes a magnet for every Ultra-Orthodox household. But the increasing intrusion of modernity is an affront to the committee, leading to an inevitable conflict that forces Yair into a desperate struggle for survival.
