See the world through the eyes of Adara Khatib, a Palestinian-born student at Algonquin College in Ottawa, Ontario. After clashing with campus authorities over her stance on human rights and Palestinian liberation, the outspoken young woman finds herself on the run. With her parents Ahmed and Sara Khatib vacationing in Nabatieh, Lebanon, the only person whom Adara can turn to is Elias Casimir, the Haitian scholar with whom she clashed the most during classroom political debates. The two of them unexpectedly bond while running from the dreaded Ottawa Police. Sparks fly between the fugitives. The problem is that Adara, fiercely proud of her Palestinian heritage, is stunned by her growing feelings for the charming and devoted Elias. Will Adara follow her heart or give into fourteen centuries of tradition ?
