Summary

The Middle East.  In an attic room a group of terrorists hold a young girl, Naomi, and wait while the Government decides whether or not to pay the ransom.  The building is surrounded by troops and there can be no escape for the kidnappers – but still they hold their prisoner.  The tension between the two terrorists heightens and Brother Luis tries to intervene: inevitably, tragedy overtakes them.
