He's married to a woman he loves, has enjoyed a brilliant and succesful surgeon's career, and has many Jewish friends.

Flabbergasted and broken by this revelation and wanting to understand how he was incapable of sensing her intentions, Amin decides to go to the Palestinian Territories to search for the person he believes recruited his wife.
