A Palestinian family settles in a new exile in Lebanon after fleeing Kuwait during the Gulf War. The children, raised with the epic tales of their grandfather's heroism in the defense of Palestine, finally meet him but only for one day before he dies. The young brothers, inspired by a girl that creates beautiful rituals from her grandmother's garden, try to transcend their predicament as refugees by spending their holidays productively.
