Judge Jonathan Barnea serves both as a district court and a community court judge. He is committed
to community court as it is an opportunity for him to vindicate his only son who became addicted to
drugs and took his own life. When a community court defendant, who reminds Barnea strongly of his
dead son, knocks on his door one night seeking help, the guilt-ridden judge allows him to spend the
night at his home. This will turn out to have been a terrible mistake, leading to Barnea's arrest and
indictment for sexual assault.
The judge is interrogated by inspector Anat Nachmias, recently back from maternity leave and trying to
juggle motherhood and a challenging police career.
Nachmias recommends indicting the judge with a major crime. The judge's world comes crashing
down. Shortly before the trial begins, Nachmias realizes she has made a grave mistake and that the
judge had been framed by an imposter. Nachmias joins forces with the judge in trying to track the imposter down.
