Rabbi Capoeira reveals a dramatic and unknown occurrence in the heart of Bnei Brak, the largest ultra-Orthodox city in Israel. The hero of the film is the Capoeira champion of the Mediterranean. He is an ultra-orthodox man whose life was saved by Capoeira, who wants to revolutionize his beloved society, despite the strong criticism he has towards it. Together with his dream partner, a brave ultra-Orthodox woman with a tough life story of her own, he fights like a lion and is not ready to take no for an answer.
