Shurti Ala Al Hamesh plot

The 41-year-old Palestinian Nidal, also known as Abu Sa'ed, is a police officer. While working, he wears a uniform and has a certain power and status. But when he enters the Israeli-occupied Old Town of Hebron, he is obliged to take off his uniform cap and remove the epaulettes, because at home he has no power whatsoever. There, in the small house where he has lived with his wife and nine children since 1997, he is a completely different man. The family is poor and under constant pressure from the Israeli soldiers and the Jewish settlers living all around them.
