Moses Zaltzman is a beloved off-beat Hasidic rabbi in a small town in the California high desert. When his congregation is violently attacked, police quickly accuse a young white nationalist who threatened them in the past, but Rabbi Mo thinks the troubled teen may be innocent. With no one else willing to investigate, Rabbi Mo becomes the detective, and as the bodies pile up, he becomes a modern day resistance fighter and must learn how to use a gun. At the heart of the film is the unexpected bond between the rabbi and an antisemite, as well as Mo’s looming fear that he won’t pull the trigger if he has to… and that he will.
