The film takes place in 1999 in a small Israeli town, in which a young girl called Clara Chanov (Lucy Dubinchik) discovers that she has paranormal powers that allow her to predict the future.

After sarcastically "praising" the class, Munitz and Tissona proceed to denounce this as "an act of rebellion" and that the ringleader confess his or her action.

Elinor Galash, a math prodigy, is singled out as the person who helped solve the questions in the exam, though Tissona doesn't punish her and offers her sympathy.

Next up is Tikel, to whom Tissona tells him about a dream he had with Édith Piaf, then about an experience about his youth with a love interest, in an attempt to get him to confess to his "pathetic act of rebellion".

The next morning, Tikel and Rozy attempt to burn Galit Biron alive in retaliation for telling Munitz and Tissona about Clara.

As expected, Tissona and Munitz attempt to do a raffle pop-quiz to see if the last test was a fluke; Elinor Galash picks the 5 numbers from the book, as Clara predicted: 99, 404, 111, 890, and 1000.

After the entire class finishes the quiz, Tikel is accosted about it by Tissona, who begins to suspect that he and Rozy are taking pills to avoid talking to the school authorities.

After school, Tikel, Rozy, and Liby, a friend of theirs, talk about the events, and that Clara is too smart to guess the numbers of the test twice.

As they walk away from the school grounds, the anarchist friends resolve to "do something real heavy that will put [them] in the country's history books."

To console himself over the failure of his plan, Munitz tells Tissona about the sole day he spent in Vietnam during the war, which ended up with him beating Bobby Fischer in chess; Tissona, for his part, reveals something that a number of people, especially Tikel, long suspected: he had slept with Édith Piaf in early 1961, and the experience resulted in Piaf writing "Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien".

As they talk, Clara arrives at his home, but while Tikel tries and makes himself look presentable, she leaves and bumps unwittingly into Rozy, his sister Vered, and Liby, who take her with them on a tour around the city.
