Forty-eight-year-old Eva is a beloved high school teacher and the wife of the town’s mayor. While supporting her husband’s political campaign, she volunteers at a local refugee center, where she meets Amir, an eighteen-year-old asylum seeker from Syria. A powerful passion ignites between them – at least in Eva’s eyes. In this tale of forbidden love, the director delicately unveils the complex themes of privilege and exploitation.
