Ordinary people from two long-time rivalry and isolated nations meet by chance, and they find that the other is not what they imagined. In the almost dead night in the desert town, they performed a story with the theme of loneliness and communication in a few words. This is the most embarrassing film I've ever seen. From different ethnic groups, language and cultural barriers make this film full of various awkward plots and scenes, and the film uses dark humor to deal with it, such as Egyptian trumpeters teaching shy Israeli boys how to approach girls In that section, there are no exaggerated pictures and sounds, no lines, but it makes people laugh. Similar to this, there is the section where a table of people eats. All subtitles for the film are bilingual in Hebrew and Arabic, making it feel as natural and harmonious as the English and French Canadian, Flemish and French bilingual signage in Belgium. Seeing that the two ethnic groups that are feuding can be so eager to communicate with each other, as an outsider, I feel heartfelt comfort.
