Dafna and Avihai are a young couple living in Tel Aviv. She produces events and parties; he is a flourishing musician. Together, they devour life and enjoy every single moment. Yet Dafna could settle down already. When Avihai finally proposes, she is overwhelmed with joy - finally, she's looking at the big day when she'll produce her own wedding party. But then, one day, Avihai starts putting on tefillin and asks whether it would be possible not to drive to Dafna's parents on Shabbat. While she does not fully grasp the implications, their love story slowly becomes the biggest test of their lives.

A saftig, empathy-arousing comedy about the possible cohabitation of faith and passion, great dreams, and moments of painful disillusionment -- the search for common ground when the couple is neither DATI (observant) nor HILONI (non-observant), in short when they're DATILONIM.
