Summary
Tanya and Nonna were born in the USSR. They both married Palestinians and followed their spouses to the Palestinian Territories where they became members of the minority. However, beyond the military checkpoints, in Israel, live thousands of their compatriots. Nonna wants desperately to find her former classmate while Tanya just dreams of meeting her mother one last time. But neither can leave the confines of the West Bank. Tanya adopts the religion and the language of her husband, while Nonna struggles to preserve her Russian identity. Can they still belong to the country of their birth? Can they ever feel at home in the land they adopted for love?
