The dock of a ship on the waters of the Mediterranean becomes a halt of peace for the wandering Palestinian leader in his quest for liberation. After living clandestinely in Beirut, the head of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), Yasser Arafat, was pressured to leave Lebanon for a new exile in Tunis, across Greece. He talks about his destiny, his journey and the future of the PLO. Saab was the only journalist with a camera admitted to accompany him on the boat.
