Jerusalem: A city of contrasts and conflicts, where Arabs, Jews, Christians and Muslims all mix but seldom mingle.

Despite their best efforts to keep their romance a secret, their friends and families find out the truth, and their reactions are swift and violent.

Willing to risk all for the sake of love, they elope in a land where marriage between them is impossible and the consequences of being together - deadly.
