Prolific writer-director Michael Winterbottom’s (A Mighty Heart, The Trip series) passion project 15 years in the making and based on real people and events, this historical drama tells the story of a cross-cultural relationship between a ranking member of the British Palestine Police Force and a young Jewish woman, exploring the way extremism and violence push people apart while forcing them to choose sides. Set in Tel Aviv during the British Mandate for Palestine just before the founding of the state of Israel, this troubled love story is a smartly crafted and rigorously acted plea for tolerance and compassion.
