Ahava sheyn letara bemilim
The lives of the forty nuns of the Beit Jamal monastery near Beit Shemesh. Why did they decide to forgo motherhood and marriage and wilfully commit themselves to a collective life of obedience and worship in perpetual silence ? Cut off from the world, are they totally removed from the Israeli context? And does their life change when they are sent to Beit Jamal from Paris or Rome? The film follows their daily life and attempts to deal with the cinematic challenge posed by their silence.
