While there's a curfew outside her door, a woman is sitting in her flat in Ramallah. She is craving for a smoke but the cigarettes are on the balcony and she can't go out - there are snipers on the other side of the street. Imprisoned in the privacy of her home, she is thinking about her own life and about the lives of the people that were close to her. There's Maryam who dated a married man and became a victim of an “honour” killing. And there's her mother, hoping to come back to Ramallah, who died alone in exile with the key to her abandoned house on a chain around her neck.
