Four Jewish women are getting ready for a journey. They are about to travel to Ukraine and reach a holy man’s grave. They believe that if they pray on his grave, all their wishes will come true within a year. These women go to the grave of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, who died 200 years ago and is considered to be a “Miracle Man” and founder of the Breslov Hasidic dynasty. This branch of Hasidic Judaism, which celebrates life and joy, swept tens of thousands of followers in the last ten years. When the four women return to their day to day life, they have to find out if the miracles will happen.
