I'm an Arab Jew. I listen to classical music in the morning and
Arabic music in the evening. Surprisingly for someone so young,
Nuri Imari (whose family we encountered in The Dove Flyer), is
appointed advisor on Arab affairs tothe Israeli government. With
little guidance he is asked by his boss to set up an office in East
Jerusalem, sniff around to see what's happening there, meet their
effendis, and provide me with your evaluations. Everyone is reeling
from the aftermath of the Six Day War. The Palestinians cannot
comprehend their losses, whilst the Israelis are waking up to a new
political reality - and new responsibilities. Nuri discovers
complexities and loyalties he could never have imagined. He tries
to steer a humane course but soon finds himself confronting bigotry
and hatred on both sides. And then he meets Yasmine, a Palestinian
woman recently returned from Paris...
