Ronit flies back home to London, following the news of the death of her father, the Rabbi of an Orthodox community. She left because of her intimate relationship with Esti, her friend, but now, seeing her again reignites repressed feelings.  Sebastián Lelio reexamines the borders between sexual liberalism and conformist community. He places his narrative in the Orthodox community, and avoids kitsch or voyeurism; the result is a perfect appearance from his actors, a combination between daring and restraint.
