We’re in Lebanon in the near future, and Beirut is facing major litter and garbage problems causing a family to move away from the polluted city in favour of a better life in a summer house in the mountains. It does not take long before this idyll is shattered. The youngest daughter discovers some strangers at their house, and it turns out that the local authorities are about to set up a landfill there.
