Alexandria Film Festival is happy to show a sneak preview of the film Jaffa

In the heart of Jaffa , a city nicknamed “the Bride of the Sea” by the Israelis, Reuven owns a family business. His daughter Mali and his son Meir, as well as Toufik and Hassan, a young Palestinian and his father, work there for Reuven. No one suspects that Mali and Toufik have been in love for years. As the lovers secretly make their wedding arrangements, tension builds between Meir and Toufik. Avoiding the usual cliches, Jaffa is an honest and moving look at just how hard it is for love to conquer all. An official selection of the Cannes Film Festival.
