This adaptation of theA husband/wife team of Norwegian diplomats (Andrew Scott/Ruth Wilson) hosted secret back-channel negotiations between a small group of Israeli and Palestinian representatives that led to the 1993 Oslo Peace Accords. This adaptation of the Tony Award-winning play has a solid theatrical structure with lots of small scenes, each with a conflict that must be resolved before the next one.

Plot builds on many innacuracies while inadvertently pushing for the dehumanization of one side at the expense of the other. It fails to push beyond shallow remarks and creates a remarkable detachment from reality.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well acted and terrific depiction of events leading up the final handshake between the PLO and Israel. It was eye opening as it was hopeful that peace can be had in the middle east and beyond. Once you get the right people in the room at the right time and place anything is possible.… Expand
