Israel/USA, 2012, 96 min. , Hebrew, Arabic with subtitles This is the story of love between barriers and life in the shadows. An aspiring Palestinian graduate student, Nimer, and a Jewish lawyer, Roy, feel an instant attraction and fall in love. Torn between a homeland that would reject his secret sexual identity and an Israeli society that repudiates his nationality, Nimer faces further adversity in the increasingly violent activism of his brother, a member of an extremist group and the tightening noose of Israeli security forces. Ultimately, he is forced to decide between his dreams of studying abroad and the emotional lifeline offered by Roy. Morphing from a tender border-crossing romance to suspenseful thriller, the film features sympathetic performances, and a gritty visual palette that heightens the sense of urgency. Best Film at the Haifa International Film Festival
