Noa Ben Hagai | Israel 2009 | 75 Min. | OmeU

At 14, my grandmother’s sister disappeared from her home in Israel. Years later, she started sending my family letters with a desperate plea for contact, written from a refugee camp where she lived as an Arab. My family chose to turn their backs. I discovered her letters after my grandmother died and set out on an emotional quest to uncover the past and to reveal the story of my torn-up family.
