Storyline
Chatila and Reda, two cousins stuck in Athens, are just trying to claw their way out of a mess that keeps getting messier. Both are Palestinian refugees, and every day feels like walking on a tightrope—no safety net, no backup plan. Their big hope? Scrounging up enough cash for fake passports. But, of course, nothing goes smooth. Reda, with his drug habit, blows all their savings, and suddenly their tiny shot at a new life just goes up in smoke. Chatila, desperate and out of options, flips the script: instead of running, why not pretend to be smugglers themselves? Maybe they can hustle hard enough to buy themselves a way out before their luck runs out—or before something worse happens. The film doesn’t just dip its toes in the tension; it dives in headfirst. It’s gritty, raw, and unflinching, showing what happens when hope is thin and every decision might be your last shot. The whole thing plays out like a ticking time bomb—one wrong move, and it all blows up.
