The film follows Julia, a Russian Immigrant, and her five year old daughter, who live on the border between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, 4 km from Gaza city, in Kibbutz Nir-Am. Due to its close proximity to the border, Kibbutz Nir-Am has the highest ratio of rocket hits per square kilometer, and the least amount of time for advance warning - less than 18 seconds from the time the "Red Dawn" siren is sounded. This is an intimate and surprising story of a mother and daughter who raise each other in their barbed-wired Garden of Eden.
