Muna
Synopsis
Muna, an Israeli-Arab photographer from Tel Aviv, is putting together an exhibition of her work. The exhibition will take place in Paris and be sponsored by the Israeli government.
Her Arab critics argue that this exhibition is an attempt to cover-up for the discriminating Israeli establishment; and her Jewish critics refuse to accept her as their representative.
Simultaneously, her new and complicated relationship with Yaniv, a Jewish news producer, is being put to the test ever so intensely against her family and the village she grew up in.
