Richard, journaliste et reporter, part pour la Palestine. L'imminence d'une signature d'un accord de paix entre Israéliens et Palestiniens et la douce perspective de retrouver son amie Esther a raison de sa résistance à se relancer dans le reportage politique. Dès son arrivée à Jérusalem, son chemin croise celui d'un « guide » palestinien, personnage ouvert, chaleureux et volubile, surnommé « radio-locale ».
