The Shelter

Synopsis

Mohammed, a militant, young Palestinian worker from the Occupied Territories, accidentally loses his mandatory Id card in Tel Aviv. His compliant, older friend Abu Samir understands his plight, and invites him to spend the night in a basement air raid shelter near the construction site where they both work. The long night holds many surprises, and by the next morning neither man will be the same.
