Growing up in the Occupied Palestinian Territory is not easy: When you leave home for school, your mother can't be sure of when you'll be back. Maybe that night, maybe a year later. A stroll with your friends may end up on a police interrogation station. On any night, a group of soldiers may wake you up in the middle of the night and take you -or/and your brother, your father...- to prison, after blinding and handcuffing you in front of your family. You do not need to do anything special, just be there, be a kid. Rami, Ibrahim, Mahmoud - Three among thousands. The film is their story, but also that of courageous Israelis and Palestinians working to cut abuses, stop conflict and heal its consequences.
