Noemi is a young devoted Jewish girl who has just lost her mother and who is close to celebrate a marriage imposed by her father.

Yet, the seminary students are assigned the task of helping the city's needy people as part of their spiritual formation and Noemi and Michelle are told to work together.

The two of them are sent to take care of old Mrs Anouk, an old lady suffering from cancer and heart problems who, in the past, has betrayed her husband and committed pre-intentional murder.

But as they have broken the same Laws not giving a chance to Mrs Anouk (who in the meanwhile has died of heart attack in a hospital, comforted by the two girls), Noemi and Michelle are both expelled from the school.

Concerning sexual intercourse between two women, Noemi convinces Michelle that there's nothing sinful about them as the Torah only forbids (or at least she thinks so) homosexual relationships involving two men.
