Documentary film about an Israeli metal band called "Orphaned Land". Includes personal interviews with all the members of the band, also artists like Steven Wilson & Marty Friedman, Israeli Rabbi, first ever interview with the band's lyrics writer, Israeli fans, and Arab fans from Egypt, Saudi Arabia & Turkey, who admit their opinion about Israel has changed thanks to Orphaned Land. Also includes rare archive materials like the band's first show (from 1991), rehearsal and first home-made interview the band made in high school. The film deals with music, texts, the band's history from the first day until today, politics, religion, middle east problems and many more. During concerts of Orphaned Land you can see Jews and Arabs singing together parts from the Koran/Bible in peace. You can see from interviews with the Jewish and Arab fans, that it is possible for peace to be achieved even outside of the music bubble. If an Arab fan and Jewish fan like the same song and same band, this could be the initial starting point towards the union of the cultures. It's a film about metal, peace and music.
