The film is inspired by the real-life story of Daniel Barenboim's West–Eastern Divan Orchestra.[4]
A world-famous conductor, Eduard Sporck, is approached by Karla de Fries to put together an Israeli-Palestinian youth orchestra for a peace performance. He accepts, but first he must have his group overcome their beliefs, fears, and bigotry in order to come together.
