In 1978, thirty years after the creation of Hind's school, a five-year-old girl arrives at the school after the tragic death of her mother. Her name is Miral (Freida Pinto, Slumdog Millionaire): the film tells her story. She grows up within the institute's protective walls, but when she is 16 years old, when the first Intifada explodes, Miral is sent as a student teacher into the refugee camps. It is there that she begins to understand the anger and rebellion that drives the Palestinian people. When she falls in love with Hani (Omar Metwally, Munich), a political militant, Miral finds herself confronted by a wrenching dilemma: should she commit to the path of violence or dare to believe, with Mama Hind, that only education can lead to lasting peace.
