Based on a novel by Lilly Perry Amitai, Blind Man's Bluff takes a bittersweet look at the life of a young Israeli woman. Trying to distance herself from her Holocaust-surviving parents and ex-boyfriend, pianist Micki Stav moves out of her parents' house in search of her own identity.

She moves into a small apartment but remains caught in a lattice of demanding relationships; tension increases as Micki attempts to achieve success in the classical music world. Her eclectic new neighbors, though, introduce her to a new world of desires in which Micki finds the courage to confront her problems and emerge as an independent and mature woman.

"... engrossing, quietly powerful..." - Los Angeles Times
