Who is a Jew? What does it mean to be Jewish? Romauld Jakub Weksler-Waszkinel’s Jewish mother left him on the doorstep of a Polish Catholic family in 1943, when he was an infant. This heartfelt and insightful documentary follows the life of the Catholic priest as he struggles to reconcile two faiths that he sees as one at age 67. He moves to Israel in a poignant search for his true identity.
