The sudden death of the esteemed creator, fashion icon and actress Ronit Elkbetz had shocked Israel's cultural world and citizens in general. Her brother and long-term collaborator, director Shlomi Elkabetz embarks on a fictional journey between Morocco, Israel and Paris.

Based on family archives and excerpts from the trilogy created by Ronit and Shlomi Elkabetz - CAHIERS NOIRS: VIVIANE and CAHIERS NOIRS: RONIT, the film invites us into the intimacy of a Jewish-Arab family, a family of uprooted exiles, in an imaginary story where a brother and sister revisit the past and the present to defy an implacable future.
