A satiric look at the Israeli-Arab conflict. A precocious Israeli teenager unsuccessfully tries to rebel against her ultra-liberal parents. Just as she’s about to give up, she meets the charming son of the family maid, who also happens to be Arab. Sparks of romance between the two evoke the parents’ alarm, leading to a series of hilarious misunderstandings involving the incensed families from both sides.
