Plot:
The famous German conductor Edward accepted an extremely difficult task to form a youth symphony orchestra across Israel and Palestine, but he soon found himself caught in a storm. It turned out that these musicians from Israel and Palestine, who were constantly facing the shadow of war and terrorist attacks, had been enemies since birth and it was difficult for them to complete a symphony performance together... They soon automatically split into two factions, each led by their own violinist. The first was Leila from Palestine. Although her mother taught her to go to the streets to protest against Israel since she was a child, she was never moved and always worked hard to practice the violin in the turmoil filled with tear gas. On the other side, Israeli violinist Ron had a solid foundation in classical music since he was a child and even formed a band. Leila went to the Tel Aviv venue to practice the piano every day, and had to work hard to pass the checkpoints stationed by the Israeli army, and was often humiliated. Ron directly brought his band members into the orchestra to participate in the selection, intending to influence the proportion of members, and the conflict between the two sides was imminent... In order to successfully complete this symphony performance, Edward decided to use all his teaching resources and communication skills to overcome the cultural differences and national hatred between the two sides. Can he really make everyone put aside hatred, fear and paranoia, trust each other, unite, and then start a month-long rehearsal and successfully perform on stage? The film was inspired by the sensational peace initiative of Daniel Barenboim, the current director of the Berlin Opera. He once brought together young Israeli and Arab musicians in a 1:1 ratio to perform, hoping to calm the tense atmosphere between Israel and the Arabs, which shocked the world.
