It had been a crisp September morning like so many others. And then it was not. Days of innocence would fade to mere memory. Forces from afar would see to that. An explosion of evil would violate sacred shores and carve a path of death and destruction. America would never again be the same. Despite the horror, the untold stories of resilience and unity from survivors and loved ones pay tribute to hope amid tragedy.
A Ukrainian patchwork-family spends their last day of vacation on the island of Tenerife. The four do not know yet that the next day their life will completely change. Overnight, they will go from being tourists to refugees.
Shlomi, an eighteen-year-old Israeli soldier, flees the Gaza battlefield and heads to his girlfriend in Tel Aviv only to discover that the IDF elite is convinced he was kidnapped in the fog of war. This is a tragi-comic journey, taking place over a period of 24 hours in the hot and humid streets of Tel Aviv, shifting from terror to hope, from romance to nightmare.
Director's Note:
The clash between love and law is also the clash between breathless running and paralysis. One pushes Shlomi to defect from war-torn Gaza to Tel Aviv, to his beloved's arms. The other threatens both his existence and the world around him.
