A completely different take on the Palestine-Israel conflict... straight from people like you and me! Five random travelers come together to trek to a waterfall in Hampi a serene heartland in Southern India , famous for its ruins, temples and a river. They trudge across the surreal landscape, happily disconnected from their routines. To recharge their energy after walking for sometime, they stop under a rock shelter. An innocuous discussion begins to change the trajectory of their thoughts.

Meanwhile, in yet another part of Hampi, an young photographer from Israel is searching for peace through meditation, when most other backpackers seem to choose drugs.

And, a young Palestinian doctor, travels half the globe to a small country in South America, hoping to make others understand the routine challenges of life in her homeland.

Everybody is searching for something. Can they find it?

'The Waterfall' is a journey that brings together some people, as they share their hopes and angst while searching for answers.
