Israel 1987 - disaffected Palestinians from the then occupied territories are joining together and lighting the fuse of the uprisings that will become known as the Intifada. Men like Rashid Sounar, a journalist once married to a Jew, who thinks he can fight with the pen. His friend Ali, just out of prison, who believes only guns can really win. Fresh off a plane from England a young girl, Fiona, arrives to work on a Kibbutz, romantically imagining Israel as a biblical land full of orange groves and donkeys. The harsh reality is that she has arrived in a country on the brink of a brutal civil war. She forms a friendship with the Jerusalem journalist Rashid - and then falls in love with an Israeli soldier, Rami. Can she remain impartial to a war between Muslim and Jew? Politics, war, history and religion all converge in one young woman's struggle to build a life in a country where there is no room for compromise. A devastating turn of events forces Fiona to face a heart-breaking decision. Can she leave Israel - and Rami?
