In the hot summer of northern Palestine, in the main hall of the Jenin Freedom Theater, a group of brave actors rehearse a play, risking their lives to fulfill their dream of premiering it in New York.
Six years have passed since the theater's founder, Juliano Mer Khamis, was brutally murdered, but his death only fanned the flame that ignited the Freedom Theater: art as the heart of peaceful cultural resistance.
Summer is coming to an end, but the heat seems to increase with the nervousness that runs through every corner of the theater. The cast is just a few days away from trying to travel to New York. Will they make it?
