Set in 1936, the film follows Yusuf, a Palestinian torn between his village life and his work in Jerusalem as the British Empire tightens control over the Mandate. Amid an anti‑colonial uprising and an influx of Jewish refugees fleeing European persecution, the opposing forces clash, leading to a decisive moment that could reshape the region.
