Mexico City’s close-knit Jewish community is the setting for this moving and unassuming comedy where a divorcée plans to bring together her family and friends by ending her life on the eve of Passover. She leaves behind detailed plans for the Passover Seder and unintentionally, a mysterious snapshot that leads to a surprising revelation about
Nora that changes everyone's perspective on her. A colourful collection of characters
assembles in Nora’s apartment, including disapproving rabbis, a devoted housekeeper, a half blind aunt and the couple’s grown son as Nora’s ex-husband José grudgingly handles funeral arrangements considering his cynicism about Jewish rituals. As this disparate group meets and tries to honour Nora’s wishes, they find out a great deal about her and themselves.
