An improbable couple must make the choice to live in exile to stay together in this documentary from Swedish filmmaker Gabriella Bier. An Israeli woman and a Palestinian man are without the support of their families when they make the decision to wed. Constantly faced with the prejudices in their own homes, they take their chances on a happier life in Europe. For three years Bier followed the couple, documenting their strife and hope at every turn. Love During Wartime is a heartbreaking and celebratory story of the trials of young romance and displaced lives. Newcomer Bier is the cousin of Denmark’s Oscar-winning director Suzanna Bier.
