Bar Bahar

Three Israeli-Palestinian women share an apartment in Tel Aviv. Laila is a young, progressive lawyer. She has a troubled relationship with Ziad, a filmmaker. Although outwardly progressive, Ziad wants to better define their relationship and sometimes makes spiteful remarks about Laila's attire. Then there is the lesbian Salma, DJ in a bar. She falls in love with Dunya, but will she dare out to her conservative Christian parents? Finally, there is Nour, who is the last to live in the flat. She is from a village and is studying in Tel Aviv. As the only one wearing a veil, she is somewhat out of place. Wissam, her fiancé, comes to check on her now and then: she'd better give up her studies; later she has to take care of the children. The three women balance between tradition and modernism, good citizenship and deviant behavior, freedom and loyalty.
