Ambivalence

Description:

After the screening of a Palestinian film, Jonathan Garfinkel mets a Palestinian woman who tells him about a house in Israel where an Arab and a Jew cohabit peacefully. Already restless from grappling with his Jewish faith and Zionist upbringing, Garfinkel is impelled to travel to Israel and the West Bank for the first time in search of the house, with the hope of discovering a truer sense of life in the Middle East.
