Yom Kippur, 1998

A synagogue in Stockholm at Yom Kippur - the most sacred of the Jewish holidays, when Jews all over the world gather in the synagogues for a private talk with God.  A day of mortification and soul-searching causes deeply embedded family conflicts to erupt violently. But when the truths are too heavy to bear, black humour is a way out.
