Synopsis
Aisha, 96, drags a pail around to help her walk. In her ripe old age, she virtually walks to the old chicken coop in her yard “on all fours”. "Buba" the “adolescent” goat, is a substitute for Aisha’s deceased beloved husband and for her 11 children who rarely visit. As years go by, the animals provide Aisha the only reason to keep on living. On the backdrop of the spectacular landscapes of Yavniel in IL, Aisha refuses to uproot the tradition of her childhood landscape of the Atlas Mountains in MA as opposed to her children who grew up to be “ILis”.
