A Boundless Tale of Love. Replenishing the Sea of Galilee is a
sweeping story of love, loss and the power of loyalty in the face
of conflicting ideologies and religious beliefs. The story begins
in 1940s Palestine where twins Rasheed and Rasheeda Dinar work in
their family inns. Educated by a Jesuit priest about the essence of
his own Muslim religion, relative to love and sex, Rasheed follows
closely the teachings of his mentor and includes Rasheeda, so that
she learns those teachings as well. When Rasheed falls in love with
Natalia, a Jewish woman, he is able to apply what he learned from
the priest to his budding relationship. However, it is the 1940s,
and relations between Arabs and Jews are tense. Before long, those
tensions come to a breaking point. Natalia mysteriously disappears,
and Rasheed and Rasheeda are chased out of Palestine to Beirut,
Lebanon. Years pass, and though Rasheed continues to miss his
beloved Natalia, he gets word of a surprising visitor-someone he
didn't even know existed. Rasheed's life is upended, but in the
most wonderful way. As the Dinar family expands and enters the
1970s, their convictions are tested. In a dramatic final scene, the
family reunites and proves once again that the thin line separating
people because of their differences is powerless against the
strength of family, love, and loyalty.
