During the occupation of southern Lebanon by the Israeli army, an unexplainable link unites Karim, an artist with a dual cultural belonging dedicated to arabesque painting as a refuge from the exhausting situation, and Samar, a young exile in Beirut with a ruthless attitude and a taste for challenge. Their meeting is made possible by the war. (Guanajuato International Film Festival)
