The Galilee Eskimos is set in a kibbutz tucked in the hills of Galilee. When the kibbutz goes bankrupt, men, women, and children abandon their homes and shockingly leave behind a dozen residents of an old folks’ home who are left to fend for themselves. A contractor who has a deal with the creditors arrives at the kibbutz shocked to discover that these senior citizens were abandoned. These feisty old folks, while feeling initially depressed and betrayed by their relatives, begin to regain hope of rebuilding the kibbutz by themselves.
