Synopsis by Perry Seibert
This profile of the walled Israeli city Akka explains how this unusual town is home to members of the world's three major religions, and has been a place where family have had roots for centuries. However, modern times find more and more people leaving. The title comes from a tradition in which young citizens of the town climb the wall that protects their hometown from the water and fling themselves into the drink.
