When American-born Jennifer falls in love with French-born Philippe during Israel’s First Intifada, she understands their differences: she's a secular tourist, he's an observant immigrant. Determined to make it work, they spend the next 20 years rooting and uprooting their growing family, each in search of a place where they can feel home and whole. In "Places We Left Behind," Jennifer puts her marriage under a microscope, examining commitment and compromise, faith and family.
