Article Ramallah this
decade. A free spirited woman dancer, Kamar, finds herself the wife
of a prisoner, Zaid, and away from everything she loves until she
returns to the dance, defying society's taboos. At the dance Kamar
is confronted with Kais, a Palestinian returnee, who has taken Kamar's
role as the head choreographer. Sparks fly between Kamar and Kais,
creating more than a passionate, emotional dance for the both of them.
Matters become even more complicated when Zaid's sentence is extended.
At the same time the family's legal case against the land confiscation
faces one obstacle after another and the villagers from the nearby
villages are unable to reach the family's olive groves, placing the
annual harvest and consequently the family's livelihood in danger.
And Kamar's life is thrown into turmoil as she becomes increasingly
attached to Kais, and caught. Written by Najwa Najjar (Director) |
