In a near future, the free-spirited Badri family – mother Soraya (Nadine Labaki), father Walid (Saleh Bakri) and their two teenage daughters – make the decision to leave the toxic pollution and social unrest of Beirut behind by building an idyllic life for themselves in the mountains. There, they live in utopic peace, until the government begins construction on a garbage landfill right outside their fence, bringing the trash and corruption of the entire country to their doorstep. And as the landfill rises, so do family tensions.
