Yusuf is a Palestinian from a rural village who drifts between home and the charged atmosphere of mid-1930s Jerusalem as opposition to British colonial rule begins to come to the surface.
Amid mounting repression, Yusuf can’t avoid becoming more aware of the forces shaping his homeland and how his own identity fits into the events around him.
As the revolt against British rule gathers pace, Yusuf and the people he encounters – fellow rural Palestinians, journalists, intellectuals, British officials – and becomes swept up in the tide of an historic struggle that resonates to this day.
