Synopsis

For the past ten years a loving couple have managed Moscow’s Jewish Orphanage- home to children who were abused, neglected, and abandoned by the people closest to them. It takes a lot of patience but slowly, gradually, these children learn to regain their trust in humanity and secure a chance for a brighter future. This film offers a rare glimpse at life in a home with thirty children and two “parents” who refuse to give up hope.
