The first documentary feature film produced in Gaza highlights the historical precedents of war, dispossession and military control that influence a family’s daily life in Jabalia Palestinian refugee camp. Intimate scenes — a child is born, a grandmother dies — are intercut with visits to the architects of the Israeli military occupation. Ariel Sharon, Benyamin Beneliezar, and soldiers on patrol candidly discuss their responsibilities.
