After carrying out a shocking public act of protest, Sasha establishes the “269” animal liberation movement, which becomes an influential activist force in Israel. He meets Maria, who, like him, experiences a sense of alienation at the heart of Israeli society, and their shared estrangement fuels a turbulent activist relationship. The movement they lead together crosses borders and becomes an international symbol, but as the flames they ignited spread and inspire thousands, they discover that devotion to the cause is not immune to the personal cost of living within the struggle.
