An examination of the creation of the state of Israel in 1948 through to the present day. A semi-biographic film, in four chapters, about a family spanning from 1948 until recent times. Combined with intimate memories of each member, the film attempts to portray the daily life of those Palestinians who remained in their land and were labelled "Israeli-Arabs," living as a minority in their own homeland.

Uyumadan izlenebilirse güzel film. Rutin üzerinden empati yaptırmayı amaçlıyor. Dönemin Filistin'inde bir ailenin yaşantısını insana gerçekten hissettirebiliyor. Arabeskin tonu biraz ağır olduğu için her zaman izlenecek bir film değil. Ben yanlış zamanda izledim bu sebeple sıktı beni mesela.
