A documentary journey through Gaza that seeks to tell its story through the depiction of ordinary people trying to live meaningful lives under Israeli occupation and in the midst of seemingly perennial conflict. The subjects include include teenagers, a theatre director, a taxi driver, a rooftop restauranteur and twin wedding planners. An intimate portrait of people's attempts to lead lives where they don’t have to be defined by their resilient struggle. A kaleidoscopic tribute to the human spirit. A portrait of a people attempting to lead meaningful lives against the rubble of perennial conflict and going beyond the reach of television news reports to reveal a world rich with eloquent and resilient characters.
