Shortly after the end of the Six-Day War, Eli, a moped courier, hits a tomcat in Jerusalem. Full of guilt, he takes the animal in. It turns out that the cat had previously lived with an Arab family who, like many others, had fled East Jerusalem.
Thousands of stray “Palestinian” cats roam hungrily in the western part of the city, indistinguishable from their “Israeli” counterparts. They attack other animals in packs – then even humans. Abruptly, the inhabitants’ joy of victory fades. Eli learns that his cat has depression, falls in love with a Russian woman, involuntarily becomes an accomplice to illegal business – and finds himself in a “fight” between cats and humans.
