Synopsis by Tracie Cooper
Hoping to expose the true attitudes and cultural perspectives of the Muslim and Western worlds, this documentary follows eight university students - four Moroccan, four American - as they travel throughout Morocco, Spain, the United States, Egypt, Palestine, Israel, and Jordan for study abroad programs. Along the way, these so-called ordinary citizens attempt to overcome social, cultural, and religious barriers.
