About film
The main character of the film is Ophira (Dina Limon), a drawing teacher, who is retiring. With the daily routine no longer needed, she decides to fulfill a long-held dream of becoming an artist. Ophira asks her husband to clear out one of the rooms in their house to create a studio, and she asks her friend, a renowned gallery owner, to organize an exhibition for her future paintings. Despite not receiving much support from either of them, she starts working on her art. However, it soon becomes clear that Ophira doesn't really know what to paint about. The film explores the refusal to age and the aspiration to understand oneself at any age.
