Sally Potter’s highly stylized tome (the dialogue is spoken in verse) is about a love affair between an American/Irish biologist (Joan Allen) and a Lebanese cook (Simon Abkarian). The movie was borne out of Potter’s response to the complex issues of race and politics in the post-9/11 world.
Actress Joan Allen scheduled to attend both screenings
