Sister/Wife

In the outskirts of Dimona lives another society, composed of African-Americans who believe they are descendants of one of the lost tribes of Israel. The film follows the story of Zipora, a religious and loving woman, who after 21 years of marriage, wakes up one morning to a new reality. According to the customs of the Hebrew Israelites, who adopted their version of the Law of the Torah, a man can marry up to seven women. Her husband, Hazriel, is about to take a second wife who is 14 years younger than she. Both will have to live under the same roof and share the same man.  A stunning, heart-rending film.
