«I'd like a woman who really pleases me.»
The Wolkenbruch family lives in Zurich's Jewish quarter. And for Jews, they are Jews! The men are dressed in full regalia: from yarmulke to tallit, not forgetting tsitsits and beard, for an overall sober outfit that gives pride of place to white shirts and black suits. Women, too, have their own clothes: wigs or veils, blouses, skirts and stockings. This is how we recognize young Mordechai, nicknamed Motti, when he goes to his economics classes at university. A place where he meets and falls in love with a sublime, extroverted non-Jewish girl. Her name is Laura. Much to the chagrin of his plump, overbearing mother, who goes out of her way to set him up with nice girls from the community.
