The Story
Under a strict military curfew, grieving father Salah (Kais Nashif, Tel Aviv on Fire) sets out on the road to attempt to cross the Israeli border. Along the way, he is helped by a young woman pregnant with an unwanted child.
A drama punctuated with a quiet and deadpan humour, Abu Omar offers a tender journey of comradery and kindness despite grief.
