They have chosen to leave everything behind them. Their family, friends, language, culture and old faith. Three Germans go to Israel and convert to the Jewish faith: the former judge Yael Jenner, the nurse Secharjah Schwarzkopf, and Nico B., a young man finding his way between career and calling - "Jew by choice". The documentary portrays these three converts on their extraordinary and difficult passage to a new life with a new name and a new identity. Theirs is a journey full of yearning for spiritual fulfilment, a sense of belonging and a home.
