Ronit Krushka (Rachel Weisz) is a photographer living in New York City when she hears the news of her father's death. She travels to London to honor her father and agrees to stay with an old friend, Dovid Kuperman, and her childhood friend Esti (McAdams), who happens to be his wife. Far detached from the Jewish Orthodox practices of her father and friends, Ronit struggles to fit in, but her friendship with Esti helps her. The two have a history, however — a past romance resulted in Ronit being exiled from her family. Now that Ronit is back in London, she discovers that her feelings toward Esti have not changed, and the two struggle with their feelings while Esti tries to adhere to the customs of her religion.
