    • Synopsis
    • Reda is 26 years old. His dreams of escaping the Palestinian refugee camp of Ain El-Helweh ended in failure after three years trapped in Greece.

      He returned with a heroin addiction which he tried to kick but the odds were stacked against him in a refugee camp being torn apart by internal strife and the encroachment of war from Syria.

      His parents tried their best to help their son and, out of desperation, they agree to let him marry someone in the hope that this will help settle him down and put him on the right path; a love story against all odds, bittersweet as the camp itself.
