While grieving the loss of his twin sister, Reuben meets Jonathan, a lonely teenage boy who finds himself unabashedly interested in the stranger to the Jewish community. Both outcasts, the two develop a friendship in full view of a harsh religious environment. Reuben's life is shattered without the one person who understood him. Jonathan is faced with family and school pressures to become a religious scholar, something he isn't sure he wants. As the two spend time learning more about each other, they discover a world exists beyond the black and white of religious law, and when their raw feelings are revealed, they must struggle with the consequences.
