Plot

The series tells the story of the Armoza family, intertwined with the history of Palestine during Ottoman rule and then under the British Mandate of Palestine. It also explores the family's fortunes during the subsequent periods of depression and war.

At the center of the series' plot, which takes place simultaneously on two timelines wherein present and past stories are presented alternately, are Gabriel Armoza (Michael Aloni), his wife Rosa (Hila Saada), and their three daughters: the eldest, Luna (Swell Ariel Or), who is her father's favorite; Rivka, and Rachel. The relationship between Gabriel and Luna contrasts with his lack of love for his wife Rosa. Her jealousy of Luna leads to difficult conflicts in the family.
