The "Geneva Initiative" was launched by Professor Alexis Keller from Geneva. In 2002, he succeeded in bringing Israelis and Palestinians back to the negotiating table in order to continue discussions on a peaceful solution of the conflict where they had been left by Bill Clinton in the late 1990s. For the following two years, the two delegations met in Geneva, Israel, Palestine, and London to discuss the conditions for a possible peace agreement.

The Israeli delegation was led by Yossi Beilin, former Israeli Justice Minister in the Rabin government. The Palestinian delegation was led by Yasser Abed Rabbo, former Information Minister of the Palestinian Authority and member of the PLO executive committee. Neither group had a mandate from their governments; they instead spoke for themselves. Nevertheless, in the course of the meetings, a first draft outlining peace conditions emerged and was signed by both delegations. Since then, the "Geneva Agreements" have become a point of reference for the many discussions aimed at finding a lasting solution for a sixty-year-old conflict.

This film is the record of these negotiations, put into perspective by two of its participants who had already been at Camp David and Taba—Israeli Daniel Levy and the Palestinian Ghaith Al-Omari, as well as Robert Malley, Clinton's Middle East advisor and Alexis Keller.
