These are vignettes or slices of Palestinian life in Nazareth and Jerusalem. The segments evoke varying degrees of humor some bordering on the farcical or even absurd. Elia Sulaiman is able to capture reactions of people in different situations and share them with the audience. The lack of dialogue (like in pantomime) ironically adds clarity to the intended message. The film suggests that this kind of behaviour is a product of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Whatever, the point is these segments relate to day-to-day lives of ordinary people. It could apply, perhaps, to people in other places. But wherever we are, we strive to live our life as best as we can in the face of adversity with a sense of humor and lightness of being.
