A creative documentary by Amer Shomali and Paul Cowan tells a story of absurdities of war. In 1988, during the first intifada, a community of farmers from Beit Sahour buy 18 cows to produce their own milk. Their non-violent attempt to end dependance on Israeli companies is soon labelled as a security threat, and a conspiracy ensues to protect the animals and their caretakers.
