About the film
In this bold, hilarious and deeply human coming-of-age drama, trainee naval officer Avigail returns from service to her Jerusalem flat, determined to unchain herself from childhood and reclaim her life. But when her innocent younger sister reveals an unexpected pregnancy, Avigail’s plans quickly derail and she must face real-world responsibility, family chaos and her own insecurities. Led by a brave, award-winning performance from Riki Reif Sinai, who won Best Actress at the 2025 Jerusalem Film Festival for her raw, layered portrayal of Avigail, the film also features standout work from Yaël Abecassis, Ori Avinoam, Yossi Marshek and Ben Sultan, bringing depth and sharp chemistry to this sharp, funny, and moving story about self-acceptance, identity and love
