A single white veil passes through the lives of three women of one Jewish family, across the twentieth century to the present: Rebecca, barely more than a child, hiding her face before meeting her bridegroom; old Claudia, stitching a tablecloth for the day of Hitler's death while her relatives vanish in the persecutions; and Elvira, who keeps a handful of the Promised Land in it.
