A cross-border love illuminates the lives of two young individuals. The inexperienced Palestinian university student Nemo (played by Nicholas Jacob) secretly infiltrates Israel and meets the handsome lawyer Roy (played by Michael Aloni) in a gay bar in Tel Aviv. Once Nemo obtains a student visa to legally enter Israel, he and Roy quickly become entangled in a passionate romance. However, as their feelings deepen, challenges arise. For Nemo, Palestine does not accept his sexual orientation, and Israel does not recognize his identity; due to a radical and violent brother, he is blacklisted by Israeli intelligence, resulting in his visa being revoked. Roy does everything he can to help Nemo, but faces intimidation from officials; meanwhile, Nemo's secret seems to be discovered by his family, putting his life in unprecedented danger. Will this love in the darkness ultimately break through obstacles and embrace the light?
