An intimate, intellectually engaged portrait of three Palestinian women navigating the collision between personal freedom and cultural/religious expectation in Tel Aviv.

The film captures the daily duality of three young Palestinian women in Tel Aviv, caught between hometown tradition and big city abandon, and the price they must pay for a lifestyle that seems obvious to many: the freedom to work, party, have sex, and choose.
