In the newest film by Evegny Ruman (The Man in the Wall, BJFF2015), three Israeli soldiers are sent on a mission to navigate a desert. The routine exercise takes place near an evacuated Bedouin village, rumored to have been cursed. When unexplained events begin to take place around them, the soldiers’ journey becomes darker and more disturbing as the expansive desert becomes increasingly claustrophobic.

Maria Linde, a Jewish-Polish Nobel Prize winner, lives a bohemian, free-spirited life in her Tuscan villa. A loving mother and grandmother, she also fosters a secret flirtation with a much younger Egyptian man. After a terrorist attack in Rome, Maria refuses to share her neighbors’ hysterical fear and antiimmigrant sentiments. Instead, she very publicly decries Europe’s eroding democracy, but she is not prepared for the consequences of her attitude and comments.
