Rabbinical student Yuri returns to Sydney when his father suddenly dies. With little else to do he starts driving a taxi after the week of mourning has passed. Almost immediately he meets Sarita - a woman Yuri believes is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen, and he is drawn to her. At the same time, he’s driving away his family; he breaks with his faith at a strip club, and ignores his well-meaning grandmother. [Jewboy] is about the universal, ceaseless struggle with faith and desire where a young man must reconcile who he is with himself.
