In this wry comedy, Tamás, a generous but stubborn boxing coach, gets along well with everyone except for his own son, Iván, who has moved to Israel and become religious. When Tamás’ beloved wife dies unexpectedly, Tamás begrudgingly agrees to let Iván sit shiva in his house, provided he brings his grandson, Ariel, with him. As past conflicts resurface and Ariel comes to believe his grandmother’s spirit haunts the house, father, son, and grandson embark on an unexpected journey of self-reflection and reconciliation.
