By Reine Mitri (Qatar, 2022, 1h40)
In this documentary, Reine Mitri focuses on the orphaned children of the martyrs of the Palestinian revolution in Lebanon: they have learned the cultural traditions of their homeland to become icons of the revolution.
The filmmaker travels around the deserted orphanage, gathering testimonies from its former occupants, now scattered across different countries. She raises the question of identity and sacrifice.
