Desperate to find a clean source of water in the middle of a parched desert, Moshe hires the services of Hiam—a dowser who uses a divining rod to search for water deep underground. As Hiam raises Moshe’s expectations, first claiming to have discovered the location of a stream, river, waterfall and finally an ocean beneath them, Moshe hurries from one spot to another, ready to dig in his desperate search for water. Yet his efforts are stymied when Hiam tells Moshe that each water source has mysteriously dried up.
