Forced to change careers after government cuts, Palestinian judge Abu Laila becomes a cabbie. And in his new profession, chaos is the rule. One morning, Abu's wife, Um, dispatches him with the task of securing a gift and a cake for Laila, their soon-to-be 7-year-old daughter. But in a day marked by gridlock, unruly passengers and surprises at every turn, Abu's simple errand becomes a surreal adventure in the urban dysfunction of the West Bank.
