Overview
Guided by a mysterious arbiter, two boys living in separate worlds form a brother-like bond. Their time is limited and their gift comes at a price. As grown men, they must remain open-minded and naïve in heart, remembering the lessons that brought them together. Opposites, imagines peace between Israel and Palestine; possible because of two leaders who refuse to be swept away by the momentum of hate, violence, and an unending battle over land.
Description
Six lessons guide two gifted boys in this fantastical tale of learning, sacrifice, and peace. Fadi and Meir discover that time owns the land, ancient wisdom should not cast a shadow over new knowledge, asking question opens minds and creates peace; doctrines close minds and draw boundaries, we are not a reflection of the actions taken by those that came before us, true and lasting peace comes when those at war want harmony more than any others, and most importantly, violence does not solve problems.
