To a Land Unknown

To a Land Unknown

Reda and Chatila (Aram Sabbah and Mahmood Bakri) are two Palestinian cousins hustling their way through the underbelly of Athens while pursuing their dream of making it to Germany. But as their hardship grows, so too does their desperation. When Reda, who turns tricks in the park to feed his addiction, loses all of their money, Chatila hatches a reckless all-or-nothing plan that strains their bond and pushes the limits of what they will do for freedom. Soon they are posing as smugglers and taking hostages in an effort to get out of their hopeless environment before it is too late. Described as "a Palestinian twist on Midnight Cowboy", To a Land Unknown tells a riveting, propulsive story about brotherhood, the moral toll of survival and the often bleak reality of migration.
