Gaza, 2007. Yahya, a young student, forges a friendship with Osama, a charismatic restaurant owner with a big heart. Together, they start peddling drugs while delivering falafel sandwiches, but they are soon forced to grapple with a corrupt cop and his oversized ego.
Premiering in the Un Certain Regard section at Cannes 2025, their third feature film earned the Nasser brothers the Best Director prize.
