Far from home, two lives shaped by distant histories cross again and again, until connection begins to exist beyond labels.
Synopsis
In Berlin’s lively nights, Hassan, a Palestinian Uber driver, carries partygoers across the city’s endless streets. When Amir, a young Israeli discovering himself far from home, keeps reappearing in his back seat, their late-night rides grow into an unexpected friendship.
Between chance encounters and shared stories, both find new ways to confront their stories.
