    • The policeman, Yaron, stands in the center of a group of elite policeman, belonging to the Israeli Anti Terrorist unit. He and his fellow unit members are the weapon; the gun the state is pointing at its opponents, the 'Arab enemy'. Yaron worships his unit, the male comradery, his muscular body, his beauty.
      Yaron is excited, his wife is expecting their baby very soon; he could become a father any minute. An encounter with a radical, violent, extraordinary group, will confront him with the Israeli class war as well as with the war within his own soul.
