Beit Alfa, the first kibbutz of the socialist Hashomer Hatzair movement, is facing a severe financial crisis. In an attempt to escape mounting debts, the members must confront a decision that shakes the foundations of the community and challenges the ideological spirit of its founding generation: whether to make the kibbutz dining hall, the vibrant center of communal life, kosher.
