Climbing the Great Pyramid

Friends Maria and Yasmeen are highly educated intellectuals of diverse ethnicities, religions, and cultures. Motivated by a genuine desire for universal harmony, they embark on a global journey to promote peace and reconciliation. Their travels take them to ancient sites, conflict-ridden communities, and involve them in an unexpected mystery.

As unfamiliar experiences change them, they realize their idealism is no match for the deep-rooted animosities and traumas of the people they encounter, including family members. Their mission to transform the world becomes a personal quest to address their own profound needs and confront their respective faiths. Will they find what they've been searching for? If so, at what cost to both women?
