Plot:
Chloe is a French-Canadian physician working at a Red Heaven operated medical clinic in Palestine, although she lives in Israel, thus needs to cross the controlled and heavily militarized checkpoint twice a day. As such, she has both Israeli and Palestinian friends and can see both sides of the conflict albeit from her North American perspective. On the Israeli side, her best friend is arguably her neighbor, Ava, a soldier in the Israeli Defense Forces who doesn't much like her current assignment of checkpoint control in the constant conflicts with mostly everyday Israelis and especially Palestinians. On the Palestinian side, Chloe has befriended Rand, one of her pregnant patients, and Rand's family: her mother Soraida, her militant older brother Faysal, and her adolescent brother Safi. Rand's husband, the unborn baby's father, Ziad, is currently in an Israeli prison awaiting sentencing and who the authorities will not grant Rand a permit to cross into Israel to visit. Chloe doesn't much like the tit for tat violence that takes place, especially from the Israeli side, they who can and more often than not do wield excessive force in being the dominant player in the region, she believing their actions harming innocent Palestinians, including children, without much care. Within this situation, she may only be able to witness so much in her day to day life before she gets caught up in what's going on in taking actions herself.
