"plaintext": "In a Hollywood film, it would be a charming encounter if Faheem Karun flirtatiously handed her an apple as they met, because their attraction is undeniable. But Karun is an Indian border guard at a checkpoint that Kashmiri student Faheem passes through on his way to his home in nearby Gurez. Both are constrained by traditional culture and religion. Moreover, centuries-old enmity and current unrest argue against any form of sexual or romantic relationship. Yet desire, and perhaps something deeper, flares between them.",
