Translation
Timothy Gregory

Unfolding across Aleppo and Toledo, it tells the interwoven stories of half Spanish, half Jewish photographer Lucas and Syrian protagonist Salma. Switching between multiple narrators, it explores the relationships between Salma and Shams al-Din—an Italian musician living in Aleppo with whom she is infatuated—along with Lucas, Lucas’ girlfriend Lola, and his son.
