Sparks fly when a Jew and a Muslim fall in love in New York . David becomes smitten with the voluptuous Layla--a mysterious, sensual dancer. Layla turns out to be a Muslim refugee. Teased by specious tips from his ironic French cameraman, David madly pursues Layla. This sets off a veiling and unveiling of the similarities--and contrasts--of their ancient cultures.

But their families are dead set against this unlikely romance. Faced with deportation, Layla must choose: Muslim Dr. Ahmad or Jewish David?
