The film centers on Kareem, an aspiring Palestinian rap artist who lives in an impoverished, mixed PalestinianJewish city near Tel Aviv.

The role of Kareem is played by Tamer Nafar, a rap artist with the Palestinian hiphop group DAM. To talk more about the film, we’re joined by the film’s director Udi Aloni and the lead actor, Tamer Nafar.
