Lost in Hope

In the form of a poetic-lyrical dialog, "Lost in Hope" tells the story of the Israeli Rachel and the Palestinian Jassir. Jassir wants to live in freedom, beyond the hopelessness and violence in his country. Rachel's dream is to study music. But first she has to complete her military service. Although they both reject the entrenched patterns and violence of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, their future is determined by the conflict in their country. The fate of one determines the fate of the other.
