Israel 2013 | 11 minutes | Hebrew

 Directed by: Danielle Schwartz

Jewish Israeli grandparents are challenged by their grandchild to compose an agreed-upon version of the untold story of a large crystal mirror, taken from the Palestinian village of Zarnuqa during the Nakba – the expulsion of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians by the new Israeli state in the 1948 war. An intimate discussion that reflects on the presence of the Nakba in the lives of Jewish Israelis and addresses its silenced remnants, located at the very center of our lives.

The film was produced for 48 mm – The International Film Festival on Nakba and Return, and screened as part of the festival at Tel Aviv, Israel on November 2013.
