A daycare worker becomes obsessed with one of her charges, a five-year-old prodigy who paces the floor and spouts cryptic poetry whenever the inspiration takes him. The humdrum existence of middle-aged Nira (Larry), an aspiring poet herself, takes a revitalizing but secretive turn when her maternal interest in protecting strange little Yoav (Schnaidman) conflicts with the personal advantages she finds in exploiting him. Director Lapid (POLICEMAN) weaves an increasingly dark tale, as the boy becomes both a symbol and a pawn for a circle of adults in search of meaning in their own lives.
