Amid the October 7 war and rising tensions along the Syrian border, the long-frozen identity of the Golan Heights Druze reaches a historic breaking point. The film follows Aya, a 19-year-old ice hockey player dreaming of representing Israel on the international stage, and her uncle Ayoub, an elder who views her choice to accept an Israeli passport as a betrayal of their Syrian roots. Filmed over four years with rare access, On Thin Ice captures the collapse of a 55-year-old status quo at the exact moment the border becomes a global flashpoint.
