This is about 5 brothers and a doting mother in a family that has strong Jewish beliefs.
Each of them successful in their own careers, the eldest one, a restaurateur, the other, owning a pharmacy,
a professor and the youngest owns a gaming club.
But a story that seems atypical went complicated when one of the brothers, David, went to Marseilles and was involved
in drugs, violence and the mafia. Things got complicated and was soon wanted by the authorities.

David was the black sheep among them, he didn't have a good life and was in hiding for quite sometime and like any all-too perfect family,
there's always a secret that's unrevealed.
His father was once involved in this mess and only David and his mother knows about it, concealing the truth,
in order to protect their family and thereby risking his life.

As the story progresses, it's not David's life that is at stake anymore but all of them.
The brothers decided to take matters into their own hands.
It's about revenge and retribution, when the unreasonable becomes reasonable.




This film is about camaraderie and brotherhood.
I think what makes it more interesting was the powerhouse cast of actors who played superbly in their role.
Another thing, for a non-Jewish like me, I learned a lot of Jewish customs and its religion.
It is overall a movie that sets your pace, though some parts maybe a bit of cliche, but a good movie nonetheless.
