하워드 래트너는 뉴욕에서 보석상을 하는 유대인이다. 그러나 보석과 장물을 가지고 계속 돌려막기를 하는 탓에 여러 군데에 빚을 지고 있고, 심지어는 친척인 아르노에게까지 빚을 져 아르노의 빚쟁이에게 독촉을 당하는 상황. 어느 날 보스턴 셀틱스 소속 NBA 슈퍼스타 케빈 가넷이 하워드의 보석상에 구경을 오게 된다. 변변찮은 물건들에 가넷이 실망을 하고 돌아가려는 찰나 에티오피아에서 17개월을 걸려 공수한 큼지막한 오팔이 도착한다. 오팔을 본 가넷은 신비한 기운을 느끼고, 이건 신의 계시라며 자신에게 오팔을 팔아달라고 말하지만 하워드는 거절한다. 드마니와 가넷의 계속된 설득 끝에 하워드는 그의 우승반지를 담보로 오팔을 빌려주는데...

“Farah,” a bread seller, walks the streets of a Middle Eastern town, while an American military vehicle, surrounded by soldiers, slowly passes by. A moment’s silence. Then, a devastating explosion. Civilians are bloodied, wounded. The horrors of war. “Farah” looks around aghast and wailing. But nothing here is quite what it seems. In fact, “Farah” is a character played by an aspiring actress called Laila. And this isn’t Iraq, but a replica village erected on the Fort Irwin army base in California, used to train American troops before being sent abroad. Laila believes her acting talents are being wasted away in this arid simulation, where female role-players are limited to mute, background roles. She takes things much more seriously. Laila plots her way out.
