Synopsis
Israel / 2021 / English subtitles
Professor Hossam Haick, a native of Nazareth, has been ranked among the 35 leading young scientists in the world (according to MIT) and holds an impressive list of global awards. His global fame came mainly thanks to his invention – the Na-Nose, a nanometric electronic nose that diagnoses cancer in a few seconds.
However, alongside his groundbreaking scientific achievements, the successful professor from the Technion also lives in a constant identity conflict, which leads him to use his success to change the situation of Arabs in Israel.
