Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

The plot in this improbable Israeli romance revolves around a sperm donor and his later "emergency" vasectomy. Dan (Yuda Barkin) is a college student. His lady-love is Hurit (Mona Silberstein), but though he wants to marry her, they face some strong parental opposition. For some time, Dan has raised some extra cash by acting as a sperm donor. This becomes important because he is subjected to a vasectomy as part of his treatment for injuries he suffers during a plane crash. When he and Hurit marry, they have fights and arguments over their childless state. Dan pursues a pregnant woman whom he thinks may have received his sperm donation, and he begins to fall in love with her.
