Rebecca, a young American lady who has been living in Jerusalem for a while, suddenly breaks off her engagement with Julio, her Israeli fiancé. In a state of emotional shock she gets into a taxi and asks the diver to take her anywhere she likes but away from the place where she broke up. Although reluctant, Hanna, the driver lets her accompany her to Jordan’s Free Zone where she is to meet “The American”, her husband Moshe’s Palestinian business partner. Once there, they realize “The American” is not there but a Palestinian woman named Leila offers them, after much bickering with Hanna, to take them to the oasis where “The American” lives…
