Synopsis

A serio-comedy about a romantic guy who can't distinguish fantasy from reality. The tale is centered around Victor, a compassionate, average-looking guy who's borderline retarded. Operating a pilot station out of his home, in which he lives with his mother and grandmother, Victor is sort of "village idiot," hopeless romantic who spends his daytime dreaming about women. Constantly on the streets, Victor one day spots Michaella, a beautiful actress who has moved in the vicinity with her lover, Gadi. As soon as he lays eyes on her, Victor becomes intoxicated, launching a bizarre, one-sided courtship. Soon, however, his idiosyncratic courtship turns into an obsession, and when Victor begins stalking the couple, they have no choice but to call the police. The story then switches to a mental ward, where Victor falls for a fellow female patient, Levana, who pretends to be a married rabbi with children.
