In a time when Turkey has nothing but animus for its Greek citizens, a Greek Christian boy falls in love with a Turkish Muslim girl. Their love is an affront to both cultures, yet somehow it carves its own path-a path fraught with peril and tragedy. In the end, love finds a way, as it so often does, changing the lovers forever-as well as those who dared to stand opposed to it. This story is a testimonial to the strength of the human heart, and to the power of the mind to overcome past injustices in order to create a future characterized by tolerance and understanding.
