January 29, 2024. Red Crescent volunteers receive an emergency call. A 5-year old girl is trapped under fire in Gaza. While trying to keep her on the line, they do everything they can to get an ambulance to her. Her name was Hind Rajab. Blending real emergency recordings with narrative structure, the film follows the dispatchers who fight against time and impossible barriers to reach her.

Mustafa, a Palestinian construction worker, lives in the West Bank a mere 200 meters from his family in Israel. Though eligible for an Israeli ID, he instead chooses to use his work permit to visit them. The arrangement is functional until one day he gets a call that his son has been seriously injured. Rushing to cross the border, he is denied on a technicality and must find another way to enter.
