About
When a dealer in illegal archeological objects discovers a Palestinian terrorist assassination plot, members of an Israeli underground who want the plot to succeed murder him to keep it secret. His sexually traumatized sister Jamila witnesses the killing and is herself threatened, but escapes, taking with her the valuable artifact he had on him at the time. She turns to her old flame, Mickey, an embittered widower, for help. Both the underground and the terrorists pursue the pair, afraid they know enough to compromise the assassination. They are framed for her brother's murder and sought by the law as well. Jamila and Mickey, though, assume they are entangled in a deadly black market feud. Separated from each other, they manage to slip out of sight, each befriended under strange cirucumstances. Hunted by killers and the authorities, their pictures on the nation's front pages, they must confront their past and overcome personal obstacles in order to stay alive.
