Directed by Karine Nissm

In an academic world where religion, philosophy, and politics are often debated by intellectuals, our protagonists meet. Mira, a spirited Palestinian-American, and Mo, an Israeli PHD student, are introduced at the bohemian wedding of a mutual colleague as being "from the same place." Lust at first sight charges the two past the false pretenses of a shared religion into an impassioned argument about the validity of traditionalist ideologies in science. When wine and loneliness lead Mira and Mo into a dance of silence, the music fades and their journey begins.
