Storyline

Since the events of October 7th, the identity crisis of the Bedouins in the Negev has intensified. Torn between a Palestinian identity, childhood memories, and family in Gaza, and their Israeli identity and citizenship, the film portrays the complexity and internal conflicts they experience. Through the stories of five characters, each dealing with the crisis in their own unique way, deep layers of identity, belonging, and coping with a changing reality are revealed.
