Ronit Elkabetz and Moni Mushonov star in a new Israeli-French production called Jaffa, directed by Keren Yedaya.

Jaffa tracks the upheavals experienced by an Israeli couple whose lives are disrupted when their daughter, played by Dana Ivgy, falls in love with the Arab son of her father's employee.
