The story takes place in 1980 when the black Falashas in Ethiopia are recognized as genuine Jews. Because they are Jews, they are transported out of Sudanese refugee camps to Israel during Operation Moses. A young Christian Ethiopian boy is sent by his mother on a transport posing as the son of a Jewish mother whose own son has died. She tells him to “Go, live and become.” Once in Israel, his Jewish mother dies, and a French-Israeli family adopts him.
