Ruthie and Or, a mother an daughter, live in a small Tel Aviv flat, out of which the former has been a prostitute for the last twenty years. Or has tried many times to get her mother to quit working the street, but without much success -- and now finds herself caught in the same cycle of exploitation. Without lapsing into didacticism, iconoclastic director Karen Yedaya upends the cinema's glamorization of prostitution with a calm, yet impassioned, eye.
