Synopsis
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 ». Celui-ci est en plein émoi, comme toute sa famille partie à la recherche d'une grand-mère disparue en 1948 lors de l'entrée des Israéliens à Jaffa et qui vient soudainement de réapparaître à la une d'une journal local.Actors
