Life is treating self-confident and open-minded Max (Mangan) very well. As the first born of a wealthy Jewish family, he doesn’t need to worry about money. He loves his girlfriend and can imagine sharing his life with her. Everything could easily just continue the way it is, if it weren’t for his sudden doubts, diffused emotions of inner emptiness, and the urge for change.  His father owns Supertex, a discount textile company. When a dramatic accident befalls the family, Max and his two brothers must change their plans for the future.
