Inch'Allah (2012) , Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette

Quebec-born doctor Chloé (Evelyne Brochu) finds herself thrust into the middle of a conflict that's raged for centuries while living on the Israeli side of the West Bank divide and also working at a women's health clinic on the Palestinian side. Over time, Chloé strikes up a close friendship with her Israeli neighbor Ava (Sivan Levy) -- a young woman who's working as a checkpoint guard as part of her mandatory military service. Meanwhile, at work, Chloé finds her sympathies shifting to Rand (Sabrina Ouazani), an expectant mother who's trapped in a life of destitution, and whose older brother Faysal (Yousef Sweid) won't rest until the Palestinian people have been liberated.
