Two young women face each other at a border crossing: The Israeli soldier, Yael, and the Palestinian nurse, Amal. Yael lets Amal pass. Shortly afterwards, a suicide bomb kills 30 people in an Israeli restaurant. Who is to blame? The play is a kaleidoscope of fragmental witness statements, which form a braid of ambiguous truths. It turns into a never-ending cycle in which the line between victim and prosecutor is blurred. Maya Arad compares the terrorist act to the reason for its occurrence and the power monopoly it is targeting.
