SILA
Das einsame Leben eines jungen palästinensischen Mädchens, das auf den sengend heißen Straßen Süßigkeiten verkaufen muss, um für ihre Familie zu sorgen, gerät aus den Fugen, als ein gleichaltriger Konkurrent in ihr Revier eindringt. Jeder Gedanke daran, anderen zu vertrauen, wird zu einem gefährlichen Spiel mit den harten Gesetzen der Straße.
