This is a short movie depicting the challenges of prejudice, racism, and commonalities. Set in a train, an Arab and Jew are wary of each other initially. When skinheads come on to the train, they initially target the Muslim who is reading a newspaper in Arabic. When the Jewish person's cell phone goes off, with the "Hava Nagila" song as the ringtone, he also becomes the target. Together, the Arab and the Jew escape the skinheads and realize their commonalities.
