Synopsis

Young parents Efrat and Ofir abandoned their newborn son Malachi due to a medical syndrome. Bat Sheva, a devoted midwife, chose to become his foster mother, giving him a new life. Interviews with Malachi’s biological parents, foster parents, and medical staff, combined with powerful animation, reveal the trauma of abandonment and its impact is revealed: the parents wrestling with guilt while longing for forgiveness, Bat Sheva’s boundless love, and Malachi’s journey to understand himself and his past. The film explores human complexity, responsibility, and the possibility of redemption amidst pain.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
