Synopsis

It is the 1982 war in Lebanon. Palestinian militias captured eight Israeli soldiers, but their fate remains unknown for over a year. At the same time, a PLO colonel, married to the former Queen of Jordan, Dina Abdul Hamid, is lost on the battlefield. Two women desperately search for their man, Dina, on the other side, and Iris, the young wife of an Israeli soldier, on the other. Against all odds, both women become pivotal players in a prisoner exchange deal.
