Afrasianet - The film is set during the British Mandate of Palestine, as villages across the country rise up against colonial rule. The protagonist, Youssef, moves between his rural village and politically charged Jerusalem, dreaming of a future beyond the escalating turmoil.
But history is unforgiving. As the numbers of Jewish immigrants from Europe grow, and the Palestinian people unite in the largest and longest uprising against the 30-year British occupation, all sides are heading for an inevitable clash at a watershed moment for the British Empire and the future of the entire region.
Starring Jeremy Irons, Saleh Bakri, Liam Cunningham, Yasmine Al-Masri, Billy Howell, Hiam Abbas, Robert Aramayo, Karim Dawood, Zafer Al-Abedin, and Kamel Al-Basha.
