It's 1965, and Abner Hamburger, having just completed his rabbinical studies, will soon be a navy chaplain stationed in Japan. The year that follows will change Abner forever, as he and his young bride, Judy, navigate marriage, a different culture, new friendships, and the realities of the war in Vietnam, which had seemed so far away. This is a playful and moving look at one young rabbi and the people around him at a pivotal moment in his life and world history.
