West Bank, 1988: When young Noor is seriously injured during a demonstration, his mother Hanan begins to tell her family's moving story. The story takes us back to 1948, when Noor's grandfather Sharif refuses to leave Jaffa to protect his house and the orange grove. But war, expulsion and imprisonment tear the family apart. Sharif's son Salim grows up in the shadow of his home country, which he never really got to know. When Noor protests against Israeli soldiers decades later, history seems to repeat itself. But at the moment of their greatest pain, Hanan and Salim make a decision for humanity and thus give hope for reconciliation.
