In a suburb of Tel Aviv, Arabs and Jews live side by side. For the Palestinian hip hop musician Kareem repressive measures are part of daily life. When Jewish rappers are hostile to him and his friend Manar during a gig, they protest and use rap as the language to speak out against discrimination and violence: Music as the new voice of the young Arab generation, who wants to live alongside their Jewish neighbours, with equal rights and self-determination. The lead actor Tamer Nafar is also the charismatic frontman of DAM, the first Palestinian rap band and includes his own experiences in this vibrant film: ” My songs aren`t political, they just describe the place I come from”.
