Storyline: Menashe, a widower, lives and works within the Hasidic community of Borough Park, Brooklyn. Since his wife passed away a year before, he has been trying hard to regain custody of his nine-year-old son, Rieven.

Father and son get on well together, but can Menashe take care of Rieven properly?
