    Inspired by a true story, David is something of a public access cable celebrity, host of an interview show called Sex & Happiness, a show that playfully explores the correlation between sex, spice, and contemporary coupling. During a taping of one episode he almost literally trips over a voluptuous, mysterious, sensual Middle Eastern dancer named Layla. Though he's already reluctantly engaged to another woman, Abby, a svelte, Jewish, kick boxing instructor, David falls head over heels for Layla, who turns out to be a Kurdish Muslim refugee. Despite this seemingly insurmountable hurdle David pursues Layla with reckless abandon, setting off a playful veiling and unveiling of the differences and similarities between the two cultures. Theirs is truly a match made in heaven, a place they might just wind up in a lot sooner than each other imagines!
