ABRAHAM'S ODYSSEY PART 2: THE HERITAGE

Against the dramatic backgournd of the geographic variety of 8 different countries, this film reveals colorful ethnic diversity and traditions particular to the life of the inhabitants - some previously unphotographed. It also deals with the ancient land's varied religions from paganism and animist cults to Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Well-known Muslim Arab writer and actor Hisham Yanis from Jordan, and Alex Anski, a Jewish journalist and actor guide us as they converse and compare versions in the Torah and the Quran. Representing the sons of Abraham - Isaac and Ishmael, the Jordanian and the Israeli travel together in the very lands of Abraham's sojourn, discussing the conflicts and problems of the past and of the present.
