The unanimous hit of the 1972 Cannes Film Festival - An Israeli love story you will never forget.

Overview

This story centers on the Jewish practice that requires an unmarried brother to marry the childless widow of his dead brother. In this story the younger brother is only 12 years old when his brother dies. The requirement is avoided by a legal fiction, but as time passes in the story, the situation changes.
