Abdallah and Jehad are two friends born in the Gaza Strip, they know little about freedom but they believe in the sport they practice: parkour. Abdallah, founder and leader of the Gaza Parkour Team, decided to leave Gaza and move to Italy to become a professional athlete, but now he can barely survive. Jehad still lives segregated in the Strip, training the youngsters and looking after his sick father, but he doesn't stop dreaming of leaving that tormented land...

Abdallah e Jehad sono due amici nati nella Striscia di Gaza, sanno poco di che cosa sia la libertà ma credono nello sport che praticano: il parkour. Abdallah, fondatore e leader del Gaza Parkour Team, ha deciso di lasciare Gaza e di trasferirsi in Italia per diventare un atleta professionista, ma ora riesce a malapena a sopravvivere. Jehad vive ancora segregato nella Striscia, allenando i più giovani e occupandosi il padre malato, ma non smettere di sognare di lasciare quella terra martoriata…
