I am this place. And this place is me. Just before the age of forty, Renana Shaked finds herself at the starting point. All she wants for herself is peace, but returning home to Kibbutz "The Haunted" awakens in her painful memories of the past and forces her to confront everything she left behind years ago.

She has a plan, and if she just follows it, she will make her dream come true. Alon Azoulai is not part of the program. He is a distraction that could lead her astray. He puts a mirror in her face that she doesn't want to look at, and if she's not careful, the price could be devastating. He is the complete opposite of everything she was looking for, but what if the complete contrast between them is also what can make her whole?
