The film revolves through several overlapping characters; it presents one of the Bedouin living in the UAE without citizenship, and another Palestinian who lived in Sabra and Shatila in the early eighties, and is nostalgic for her homeland. Steeped in existential and philosophical questions.

After years abroad in Italy, Shadi returns to his native Nazareth. But this is no spectacular homecoming. He's back somewhat begrudgingly to honour his "wajib" (or duty) to hand out invitations to his sister's wedding with his father. The simmering tension between the two — who are often stuck in a car, more often than not in traffic — builds, exposing the sometimes-comic chasms that exist between men who live in different worlds but share an unshakable bond.
