Safe Space tells of a single night with a Birthright group as they spend this time in the Israeli desert, at Kfar Hanokdim. During this night, Hili, the protagonist of the film, comes to terms with her identity as both an Israeli and an American, while navigating the limits between both worlds. For her, this trip becomes the ultimate distillation of her experience in life, while also opening her eyes to the empowerment and sense of identity and belonging it gives to her American peers.
