In the aftermath of a devastating attack in a peaceful Israeli neighborhood, the lives of Dr. Amar and Major Shani of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) become entwined in a complex web of grief, anger, and the pursuit of answers. Dr. Amar's world shatters when he learns that his son, Hassan, was the suicide bomber responsible for the tragedy. For Major Shani, the blast not only claims the life of a childhood friend but ignites a burning desire for revenge.
As Dr. Amar returns home to face the funeral and Major Shani investigates the case, their paths cross with an undercurrent of mistrust and conflicting emotions. The IDF officer, following protocol, interrogates Dr. Amar, leading to the destruction of his home and the confiscation of his travel documents. However, Dr. Amar's determination to make a positive impact leads him to an unexpected ally-Major Shani.
Facing opposition from parents who disagree with his message of stopping hate through education, Dr. Amar perseveres, using a soccer game as a bribe to keep the children engaged. The obstacle of a boulder on the playing field becomes a metaphor for the larger challenges they face. When Dr. Amar discovers the truth behind Hassan's actions, a glimmer of understanding and reconciliation emerges between him and his wife, Lyda.
The narrative takes a poignant turn when Shani's personal loss at the hands of Dr. Amar's son is revealed. This revelation forces both men to confront the tragic consequences of their actions, prompting a shift in their perspectives. Together, they embark on an unexpected journey, attempting to remove the symbolic boulder hindering peace negotiations.
In an inspiring culmination, their efforts lead to a soccer match between Israeli and Palestinian children, inadvertently televised worldwide. As the children play, Dr. Amar and Major Shani strive to repair the emotional shortages within themselves, offering a glimpse of hope and reconciliation in the midst of deep-seated conflict.
