Storyline Intro:
The film belongs to the story of the Amers family living inside the West Bank Wall. Their daily

armed soldiers. Through sensitive lens we discover the private world of
all eight members of the family. As their dramas unfold we catch a
glimpse of their constant struggles and the small, endearing details
that sustain them: including school friends, olive trees and two small
donkeys. The story of the Amer family offers its audeince an opportunity
to reflect on the effects of racial segregation, the meaning of borders
and the absurdity of war. This documentary reveals the unknown life of
the Palestinian people.
