A touching and gentle comedy that is a box office hit in Hungary. Tamás is a big-hearted but stubborn boxing coach and gets along with everyone except his son Ivan, who fled Budapest to live as an Orthodox Jew in Israel. Ivan remains close with his mother but hasn’t spoken to his father in years. When she dies suddenly, Ivan returns to Budapest, bringing along his six-year-old son Ariel, and insists on sitting shiva – against his father’s wishes. While Ivan and Tamás remain at odds, Ariel and his grandfather strike up a friendship. Will this be enough to force the men to find a path forward together?
