Aris, despairing and desperate, attempts to leave Greece on a rotting and barely seaworthy boat.

Six stories, five directors, one night! The film unfolds during Nuit Blanche, a massive annual all night, city wide, art festival. It follows six different interweaving stories -- an artist questioning her place in the world; a fired lawyer who dons a superhero mask; two high school friends reuniting in a way that might finally become more; a lost traveller constrained by a language barrier; an altered observer who lives to capture life through his lens; and a dedicated volunteer, more focused on others than the art. All are in a period of transition in their lives, and on this one night, they will all come together, connecting, and changing each others lives forever.
An Israeli documentarian delves into the relationship between the life of the controversial author and the work, specifically the way Bellow borrowed real people from his past as the inspiration for characters in his stories.
Two young men come running out of a dark alley, leaving behind another young man with his neck stabbed. The moment Danny received the message about the murder of Itzik, his only son, his life would never again be the same. Ten years of legal proceedings and new disclosures made during that time have slowly crumbled his faith in gaining justice. Along with the pain of his loss, he realizes that only he can find the truth of what happened that night. His journey in search of the truth reveals his complex identity for the first time: a spy who worked for the security services, an Arab who converted and became a practicing Jew, a man who felt pride, respect and sympathy for a country that has absurdly and horrifyingly betrayed him.
