About film
My Kippah is a Spanish adventure film, partly inspired by the classic heists. An opportunistic thief decides to earn the trust of the local Jewish community and steal an extremely valuable book, an antiquarian Torah. Instead, he gains something way more valuable — which is obviously his own national identity and the sense of belonging, which is more important than any money, especially dishonestly earned.
