Zaytoun

On the eve of the 1982 invasion of Lebanon, an Israeli fighter pilot (Stephen Dorff) is shot down over Beirut and captured by the militia. When circumstances throw him together with a 12-year-old orphaned Palestinian refugee, their initial enmity and distrust slowly develops into understanding and the unlikeliest of alliances as they undertake a dangerous journey across hostile Lebanese territory to a place they both call home.

Featuring a superb central performance from Stephen Dorff, this compelling drama is a convincing and moving story of survival, reconciliation and friendship in a land torn apart by war from Lemon Tree director Eran Riklis and The King's Speech producer Gareth Ellis-Unwin.
