What happens

In Between (Arabic: بَر بَحَر, romanized: Bar Baḥr, lit. 'Land, Sea'; Hebrew: לא פה, לא שם, lit. 'Not Here, Not There') is a 2016 drama film written and directed by Maysaloun Hamoud, about three women of Palestinian heritage sharing a flat in Tel Aviv. An international co-production between Israel and France, the film depicts three young Israeli-Arab women living in liberal Tel Aviv, their struggles with the rule-bound Arab world, the inequality of Israeli society, and their desire to free themselves.
