From the outside, the Adler family lives an enviable life, but underneath Giora´s great love for his family lays an obsession with his eldest daughter Ariella. This strict military disciplinarian follows his teenage daughter´s every move, and he inflicts severe methods of punishment. Ariella commits a grave error, yet her father won´t punish her for it. Seeking a punishment of her own, Ariella embarks on a dark quest where she will discover a secret to her father´s past that will lead them to confront one another.
