Summary
In a nameless country under military occupation, two young friends -- a man from the occupied region ("This Place"), and a woman from the occupiers' ("That Place") -- prepare to attend a wedding... Their relationship, already complicated by their unusual professions -- he is a Protest Designer and she is a De-programmer -- is tested further when, on the eve of the wedding, That Place formally annexes This Place and declares a curfew. Suddenly finding themselves confined to the same isolated space, the young woman and man try to kill time but inevitably wind up talking about the ways in which the war between their homelands pervades the unexplored and undeniable attraction between them. Will their relationship become another casualty of war?
