Under the Same Sun

Sameh Zoabi / Narrative / Israel, Palestine, USA / 2013 / 84 mins

Shaul, an Israeli, and Nizar, a Palestinian, seem to have little in common,
but for a shared spirit of entrepreneurship. They create a solar company
with plans to bring renewable energy to communities in the Palestinian
territories. Support for their venture is difficult to gain. From families
who question them, to community members who threaten them, and government
policies that make collaboration nearly impossible, Shaul and Nizar face
many obstacles.
