A sympathetic family man with Iranian roots and a professor of Islamic studies. One asks the other for a conversation about faith and disbelief, good and evil, and the question of whether the commandments of the Quran are compatible with violence.
What seems innocuous at first develops into a mental showdown when the professor realizes that his visitor is planning an attack - and is already arming the bomb.
Nothing is certain, nothing is as it seems in this drama that raises pressing questions about hatred and reconciliation, the causes of radicalization, mutual mindfulness, and a world with and without God...
