Plots(1)

Based on the personal experience of the filmmaker during the Gaza war of 2014. "It's Ramadan...a very hot summer...with no electricity and no fan...We thought it would be like the 1st and 2nd wars, but this one is different! It's madness all day and all night long... We sleep a little here and there when the shelling stops.. It is unbearably hot, as if hell opened its doors. Heat, fires and death... The sky is crimson red all night long as if with fireworks, like a horror movie and we are in it..." (Tampere Film Festival)
