This poignant portrait of Palestinian women's lives during the Lebanese civil war recounts the tragedies that befell the residents of Tal al-Zaatar Palestinian refugee camp in former East Beirut. Presenting a panorama of their lives before the camp, the documentary brings to the forefront the testimonies of those who survived the attacks against the camp, as well as the siege, massacre, and the camp's eventual dissolution in a narrative of both hardship and hope.
