Two sisters reunite in their father's home where they grew up suffering the abuse of their depressed, singer mother.
Sing Me to Sleep examines the residual effect of a neurotic mother's suicide on her two teenage daughters. It includes teachings from Kabbalah using the backdrop of holy cities in Israel and Boston. Rebecca Bloom, the youngest, a former musician, meets, marries and almost immediately leaves the newly orthodox, troublemaker Jules in Jerusalem whom she met during travels. Ruth, a holocaust survivor with a mysterious affair in her past which is somehow connected to Rebecca's new husband, takes Rebecca in after the breakup. Anna Bloom, older sister and painter working with real blood, lives in Massachusetts, close to where she and Rebecca grew up with their psychologist-hypnotist father, Izzy. The sisters move back in with Izzy after Anna's husband is killed in a crash and they begin to relive their dead mother's abuse, understanding how it has affected their development and their choices. Jules follows Rebecca to the States and connects with Anna’s grieving son while Anna stumbles (literally) onto a man who will enter her life as lover. Ruth appears at the end and bonds with the sisters' father.
