The daughters are played by Carmen Labes, Pierrette Katrib and myself, the male lead character is played by Elie Metri. I play the role of daughter Suha, who dreams of performing on the stages of International theaters after studying ballet and becoming versed in all styles of dancing. The country's climate, stands between her and her ambitions, so she forms a wedding band while her fiancé takes on several jobs so they can make ends meet.

Dans la ville de Beyrouth, Yasser, réfugié palestinien, est chef de chantier dans une entreprise de travaux public. Tony, un Libanais chrétien, vit avec son épouse Shirine, enceinte, dans un appartement surplombant le chantier où travaille Yasser. Ce dernier tente de réparer la gouttière de l'appartement de Tony qui s'y oppose violemment. Yasser profère alors une insulte envers Tony. Il refuse de lui présenter des excuses et, dans un moment de colère suite à des propos racistes sur les Palestiniens proférés par Tony, frappe le Libanais. Ce simple conflit entre deux hommes dégénère jusqu'à des procès dont le retentissement médiatique va jusqu'au sommet de l'État car il ravive les tensions entre les groupes ethniques vivant au Liban.
