A Palestinian school teacher struggles to reconcile his risky commitment to political resistance with the chance of a new relationship with a volunteer worker and his emotional support for a student.

Palestinian schoolteacher Basem (Saleh Bakri) grapples with personal devastation after a tragic incident involving his son. His life takes an unexpected turn when he forms a deep connection with Adam, one of his students, while also developing an unexpected bond with British social worker Lisa (Imogen Poots). Simultaneously, a high-profile American attorney and his wife seek the return of their son, an Israeli soldier held captive by a Palestinian resistance group. The group's demand for a prisoner exchange creates tensions with authorities, intensifying the search for the soldier and drawing Basem and Adam's neighbourhood into turmoil.
Oscar-nominated director, Farah Nabulsi weaves these disparate yet interconnected stories into a gripping drama that is marked by empathy, unexpected twists, and unceasing provocations, anchored by Saleh Bakri's power-house performance.
