Of Exile and Yearning

Lia and Frederic meet as children, never declare their love for one another, yet remain inseparably bonded. From the comfort and security of her Jewish home and Yeshiva studies, Lia chooses her own exile, with devastating effect on her family. Her journey is a spiritual quest. Frederic, neither Jewish nor religious, emphatically refuses commitment to any ideal or belief. For him, life is for adventure and travel, the quest for enjoyment, and never to be taken too seriously.
