Haifa, em Israel, está muito orgulhosa de seu legado de coexistência pacífica entre judeus e árabes. Mas é mais dividido do que parece. Tinha que haver arenas nesta cidade onde os diferentes grupos se cruzavam, conectados através dos simples rituais da vida cotidiana. Este documentário sobre um salão de cabeleireiro especial chamado Fifi, que é possuído por duas mulheres árabes cristãs e é amado por mulheres judaicas e árabes igualmente. Ela atrai mulheres de toda a cidade e inspira amizade, aceitação e respeito entre árabes e judeus. Então, no final, acabou com um filme diferente: um sobre uma pequena ilha de sanidade.

It is the story of a little hair salon in the heart of the Arab community in Haifa (Israel); it is the story of a friendship between Arab and Jewish women in the city, which is considered a model of coexistence; and it is the story of Iris, the director, who worked as a hair washer at the salon so she could get to know women of the neighbourhood. Through her interaction with the women, in this unique frame, Iris wishes to tell the story of the community from the personal experience of the film's subjects, and to explore what it reflects of Israeli society.
