2.500 Rivlin family members from around the world
attend a reunion in Jerusalem where some family
members have lived for 200 years since their arrival
from Shklov in Eastern Europe

The Tribe documents the coming together of a family,
explores its lineage and tribal memories, and asks
if this family's destiny is synonymous with that of
Jerusalem.
