    • Synopsis
    • At 14 my grandmother's sister disappeared from her home in Israel.
      Years later, she started sending her family letters from a refugee camp in the West Bank, where she lived as an Arab, with a desperate plea for contact.
      When I discovered her letters, after my grandmother died, I decided to search for my lost Palestinian family on the other side of the border. Little did I know that I was opening a Pandora’s Box; what started out as an exciting family reunion turned sour when reality knocked on the door.
