Baruch Auerbach (Maor Schweitzer), a mature Yeshiva student who missed every opportunity to marry, is left to live in a small room in the Yeshiva where he studies and serves as the faithful assistant to the matchmaker Malki (Irit Kaplan).

When Malki assigns him the task of escorting her young daughter Shira (Omer Nudelman) from the airport - he decides that it is time to get married. Baruch asks for Malki's help, but when she tries to match him with Ruth (Niv Sultan), he decides to do everything he can to thwart the matchmaking with Ruth and win Shira's heart. Only when he realizes how much he has misinterpreted the circumstances of his life will his heart open to the love he deserves.
