Ir Be'Ain Haseara plot

"The documentary answer to 'The Wire'. An immersive film from an Israeli town in total dissolution, where the future is in the hands of a single man."

The friendly, idealistic mayor of the Israeli city of Lod tries to close the gap between the Palestinian and Israeli population in the shabby and dilapidated place. By listening, talking and exercising a lot of patience, he overcomes many obstacles. But gang wars, inequality, mutual misunderstanding and a changing political climate do not make his mission easy.
