In the best of times, committed relationships across geographic and political boundaries are daunting and hard to realize. Israel-born director Michael Mayer has put on the silver screen (at Outfest Los Angeles 2013) a daring gay love story, "Out in the Dark," involving a Palestinian Birzeit University psych student, Nimr (played by Nicholas Jacob) and attorney Roy (played by noted Israeli actor Michael Aloni). Mayer is interviewed by show host Daniel C. Tsang.
