The young Rabbi Zevi Ives and his wife Frau Sara embody the current optimism among young Jews in Europe. Their European Center for Jewish Students is making itself heard in Jewish communities around the continent. Their mission: Jew WLTM Jewess. Four times a year, they call on their members to "Party like a Jew" and thousands of Jewish singles attend the matchmaking weekends they hold across the continent. In the third generation after the Holocaust, a diverse Jewish life is spreading quickly through Europe’s big cities.
From Budapest to Brussels, from Madrid to Berlin, young Jews are seeking new, contemporary ways to approach to their rich cultural heritage in the knowledge that they want to live as Jews and be perceived as such by the people around them. The film documents what it means for 400 Jewish singles from all over Europe as they organize an event that will be attended by singles seeking a edgy balance between Torah and speed-dating.
