Summary

In a poor neighborhood on the outskirts of Athens, cousins Reda and Chatila, two Palestinian refugees, struggle to find their place in the world. Day by day, they contend with precarious jobs, social exclusion, and the constant uncertainty of a life without a home. While Reda dreams of earning enough money to support his family, Chatila desperately searches for a way to lift them both out of their hopeless situation. Their close bond is repeatedly tested by the harsh realities of everyday life – raising the question of whether a future beyond this marginalized existence is even possible.
