Synopsis
Manchmal braucht’s die Übersicht einer Giraffe oder die Perspektive
eines Kindes um den Wahnsinn einer trennenden Mauer zu überwinden. Der
naive Glaube und die ohnmächtige Trauer Ziads lassen seinen Vater so
über sich hinauswachsen, dass er eine Giraffe aus Israel entführt, um
sie nach Palästina zu schmuggeln. Manchmal ist das Verrückte eben das
einzig Sinnvolle.
