Abu Laila, a former judge, is forced by the economy to become a taxi driver. On his daughter's birthday, his wife insists he be at home early and bring her a present and a cake. But the challenges of daily life in Palestine change his plans. Abu Laila’s trials throughout the day reveal the complicated, yet universally human, situation in Palestine, and the unstoppable spirit of its people.
