About
After their mother's death, Canadian twins travel to the Levant to find a father they believed dead and an unknown brother.
After the death of their mother Nawal (Lubna Azabal), an Arab immigrant in Canada, twins Jeanne (Mélissa Désormeaux-Poulin) and Simon Marwan (Maxim Gaudette) meet notary Jean Lebel (Rémy Girard), her employer and a family friend. Nawal's will states that she will be denied a gravestone and casket unless the twins find a brother they never knew they had and their father, whom they believed dead. She has left two letters, one for each man.
Jeanne agrees to the search; Simon, whose relationship with their mother was difficult, is reluctant. Their journey takes them to the Levant and into Nawal's hidden past during a civil war. The film is adapted from Wajdi Mouawad's play.
