In a converted nuclear reactor under the biblical city of Bethlehem in Palestine, Dunia, the dying founder of a high-tech orchard designed to reverse the effects of an eco-apocalypse, passes on instructions to her successor Alia. The aim is to cultivate a replica ecosystem and replant the healing soil above. The film is an emotional tale of memory, politics and loss, as well as a story of two women forging a friendship on the brink of extinction.
