After a long journey through Space, the last two believers are about to reach their destination. Ananda, the space archaeologist, hopes to prove that Earth is not a myth and that all mankind did originate from the tiny blue planet - but mostly he wants to prove his colleagues and his father wrong and to make the biggest discovery in history. Yamaka, the outcaste rabbi, is searching for something subtler; he believes that Jerusalem is not just a mystical idea, but an actual place, where he might find the feeling of holiness missing in his life.
