Harry Melling (Harry Potter, The Queen’s Gambit), Irina Starshenbaum, and Douglas Booth (My Salinger Year, Loving Vincent) star in a troubled love story set against the British Mandate just before the founding of the state of Israel. Prolific writer-director Michael Winterbottom (The Trip series)’s passion project, 15 years in the making and based on real people and events, tells the story of a cross-cultural relationship between a ranking member of the British Palestine Police Force and a young Jewish woman. Winterbottom’s romantic drama explores the way extremism and violence push people apart, forcing them to choose sides.
