  Five sisters in Jerusalem, 1913, try to find their lost brother in New York with the help of a photograph.

  Jerusalem, 1913. The long, hot summer drags on for the Bernstein sisters - Rifka, Chava, Naomi, Dvora and Shoshanna. Their brother Isaac has been in New York for almost a year, and still the family has heard nothing from him. So when their frivolous aunt Mimi suggests that the girls have a photograph taken for their mother's birthday, they come up with a plan. Can they use the photograph to find Isaac? Will the family ever be reunited?
