Awarded at the International Film Festival in Berlin, Israeli director feature debut is a powerful witness of the war between Palestine and Israel.

Year 1989 takes the first Intifada, the Palestinian uprising against the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Israeli soldiers are sent to the Gaza Strip in order to supervise the Arab population. During a routine patrol, soldiers traversing the city, are the residents throw stones. One of the soldiers killed in a shooting at him from the roof of a washing machine. Perpetrators can not be caught. It's raining orders to four young soldiers stationed on the roof of a Palestinian home until they find the killers colleague. Palestinian residents with Israeli soldiers over his head, afraid of being accused of collaboration. The recruits must find their place in total chaos around them.

Poignant film about the struggle with their own weaknesses and immaturity in the face of war. The debut feature film inspired by the director's personal experiences.

In the 90s I was a military photographer, I was sent to the Gaza Strip, in the West Bank. (...) Many of the events in the film is inspired by zasłyszanymi stories from friends and situations that I have witnessed during military service. The murder of a soldier, which is a key point in the film really happened, a few blocks from the place where stationed. First of all, I wanted to make this movie for my friends and myself, to add us to believe that we are not alone. (...) And it is not our fault. To show how absurd it is from both sides. And that meant mostly fighting Intifada group of kids against other kids, without realizing why.
