When Rachel—an ultra-orthodox Jewish woman in Tel Aviv—asks permission to uncover her hair after a divorce, her family strongly objects. But Rachel refuses to give up without a thorough investigation of the rules and norms around this religious custom. Through her consultations with rabbi, friends, parents, and wig dressers, Rachel reconsiders her relationship to her family and community.
