Israel  - shortly after the official establishment of that ''promised land.''

Unlike his hard-working new neighbors, Sallah is shiftless and lazy, forever finding the easiest, most painless means to support his family. Amazingly, Sallah becomes a hero when, while wheeling and dealing, he uncovers misappropriations and corner-cutting in Israel's housing industry.
