Synopsis

Haifa. Uri walks down Mount Carmel, to catch a ship and forever leave all the things he loves to despise. He's evading military reserve service, thus risking jail. Cutting all the strings leaves him wondering about the foundation of his belonging to this place. Moshe is a crumbling man going up the mountain on yet another work day. Will this day mark his collapse? Will the two collide or pass through one another? An existential comedy, where the overbearing mountain with its endless stairs takes control over their destinies, in this unique panorama of the Mediterranean port city.
