“Tamas doesn’t believe in God.” “What does he believe in?” “Boxing.” Can a shiva mend a broken spirit? Tamas, a genial but gruff Budapest boxing coach, has to navigate a new relationship with his estranged son, now an Hasidic Jew living in Israel. Reunited after a tragedy, Tamas negotiates a relationship with his young grandson Ariel. Are the spirits of the departed guiding Ariel’s mischief? A moving family drama told with mordant humor and genuine warmth. “Breier’s film is masterfully acted and directed, maintaining a perfectly balanced tone between comedy and pathos.”
