A film-diary about the secret history of the links between the national liberation movements in Palestine and Latin America. The film combines direct filming unfolding events of the war of liberation in the last 18 years with never-before-seen footage recovered from the Cuban Film archives, shot by the PLO Film Unit and previously considered lost.
