An Orthodox Jewish woman, living at the edge of the cemetery on Jerusalem's Mount of Olives, becomes fascinated by a nocturnal community of prostitutes and drug dealers congregating amongst the tombstones. Mountain is a haunting and dramatic exploration of a women's search for identity.

Mountain immerses us in the rhythms and questions of Tzvia's inner and outer life, drawing us in with its beautifully composed images and enveloping us in a succession of aural details: children laughing, tour buses parking, brooms sweeping, church bells ringing, muezzins' calls, Jewish prayers, and silence.
