Elia is fleeing from Palestine to search for a new home somewhere else. The problem is, he finds his homeland everywhere he goes. The promise of new life leads to comical mistakes: from Paris to New York unexpected parallels to Palestine exist. Multi-award winning Elia Suleiman made a humorous identity movie on belonging, asking the most important question: Where is the place we call our true home?
