Synopsis
Israel is cut off from the rest of the world after the outbreak of a deadly virus.

The couple pay a smuggler to transport them, via Gaza, and onto Cyprus. But they find themselves stuck in a basement in Gaza, with Hamas on their trail, and their lives in the hands of hapless Palestinian market traders Emad and Waleed , and Waleed’s long-suffering but resourceful wife Nuhad .
