Exploring the lives and loves of eight mixed marriages from different generations and backgrounds, director Michel Khleifi uncovers the mutual intolerance of the Middle East's three monotheistic religions: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Among the subjects in FORBIDDEN MARRIAGES IN THE HOLY LAND is a young Palestinian musician living with his Israeli musicologist girlfriend, a fiery Palestinian woman married to a Jew, a Jewish woman who converted to Islam to be with her husband in Gaza, and an African woman married to a "White" Palestinian. An intriguing expose of couples who, in a region scarred by conflict and catastrophe, chose love instead of hate.
