Title

A Place in Heaven

Taglines

Overview

A young officer returns to his base after a daring mission. The cook's assistant, a religious Holocaust survivor, is envious of him. He believes that there is a place in heaven reserved for the brave officer who endangers his life for the sake of his Jewish brethren. The officer, in the spirit of the Zionist ethos, is secular and a non-believer. At the moment, he is so hungry that, for a plate of shaksuka, he is prepared to sign a contract transferring his secured place in heaven to the cook. Some forty years later, the present time of the movie, the tables have turned - the officer, now a retired general, is on his death bed in the hospital. His son who, to his father's horror, has found religion, is in a race against time. Before his father dies, he has to find that cook's assistant who, forty years earlier, bought his place in heaven. If and when he finds him, the son has to nullify the contract. If he doesn't, his father will go to hell.

מקום בגן עדן

Taglines

Overview

באופן מוזר ומפתיע ההלכה היהודית מאפשרת מכירה וקניה של מקום בגן עדן. אבל מה קורה כשסיטואציה כזו עוזבת את דפי החוק ומתרחשת במציאות? בראשית ימיה של מדינת ישראל, "במבי", קצין מהולל ועשוי ללא חת, חוזר מעוד פעולה נועזת. הוא כל כך רעב ויהיר, שהוא מסכים למכור את מקומו בגן עדן לעוזר הטבח הדתי, בתמורה לשקשוקה טובה. בחלוף 40 שנה, "במבי" שהפך לאדם בודד ומריר, שוכב על ערש דווי. בנו יחידו שחזר בתשובה והתרחק ממנו, נמצא במירוץ נגד השעון - הוא חייב למצוא את אותו עוזר טבח ולבטל את החוזה. רק כך יציל את אביו מהגיהינום.
