Between the years 2001 and 2004, Tel Aviv suffered dozens of terrorist attacks carried out by Palestinian suicide bombers. As a result, the security and economic situation deteriorated, and fear and despair became constant companions to the inhabitants of the city. The film looks at the impossible reality the Israelis live in and their attempts to survive this reality and somehow lead a normal life.
