**Additional Details**
A touching and humorous musical drama. Shaul, a commander in Unit 669 who was wounded in the war and is confined to a wheelchair, meets Amir – a student who struggles with the system, gets involved in theft, and unwillingly becomes Shaul’s assistant/caretaker. Through confrontations, humor, and music, layers that are not visible from the outside are revealed: Shaul is not just a wounded warrior but also a person fighting for the right to love, and Amir is not just a boy struggling to function within systems but also an artist with a big heart and songs that seek to be heard. An emotional play for youth about identity and second chances – and the moment when one realizes that each of us is more than a single story.
