A cross-boundary love that illuminates two young lives. The inexperienced Palestinian university student Nemo (played by Nicholas Jacob) secretly enters Israel and encounters the charming lawyer Roy (played by Michael Aloni) in a gay bar in Tel Aviv. Once Nemo obtains a student visa that allows him to legally enter and exit Israel, he and Roy quickly fall into a passionate love affair. However, as their feelings deepen, obstacles arise. For Nemo, Palestine disapproves of his sexual orientation, and Israel does not recognize his identity; due to a radical violent brother, he is blacklisted by Israeli intelligence, resulting in his visa being revoked. Roy does everything he can to help Nemo but faces threats from officials; meanwhile, it seems that Nemo's secret has been discovered by his family, putting his life in unprecedented danger. Will this love in the night ultimately break through obstacles and embrace the light?
