SCRIPT ENG:

00:00:00:18 - 00:00:03:00
We are not safe,
because every day

00:00:03:00 - 00:00:05:04
I wake up to the sound
of gunfire nearby.

00:00:05:17 - 00:00:09:07
I hear the ships and the tanks
firing every day,

00:00:09:07 - 00:00:10:23
morning and night.

00:00:11:19 - 00:00:13:11
The jets never
leave the sky.

00:00:14:02 - 00:00:15:05
Even if there is
a ceasefire.

00:00:15:19 - 00:00:16:22
I don’t feel safe,

00:00:17:15 - 00:00:19:08
because they [Israeli forces]
are close to us.

00:00:26:04 - 00:00:31:07
In Beit Lahia,
most residents
lost everything.
Israeli airstrikes

00:00:26:04 - 00:00:31:07
reduced their homes
to rubble.

00:00:31:20 - 00:00:39:00
Hanan shares a tent
with three generations
of her family:
her daughter, granddaughters

00:00:31:20 - 00:00:39:00
and great-granddaughter,
among the ruins
of their home
in Beit Lahia.

00:00:39:20 - 00:00:42:07
It’s been nearly
a year and a half

00:00:42:11 - 00:00:46:08
of living like this:
gathering wood,

00:00:46:12 - 00:00:50:10
water, and
such things.

00:00:51:00 - 00:00:56:02
It’s exhausting, especially
the smoke from the fire.

00:00:56:17 - 00:01:00:18
I’ll show you what the
smoke does to my hands.

00:01:00:18 - 00:01:04:05
Every day,
every single day,

00:01:04:05 - 00:01:10:01
everything I do now
depends on woodfire.

00:01:10:06 - 00:01:11:18
We used to wash dishes in a sink.

00:01:12:02 - 00:01:13:10
We used to cook on a stove.

00:01:13:12 - 00:01:15:10
Now we cook over a fire,

00:01:15:10 - 00:01:16:12
wash dishes in bassins,

00:01:16:12 - 00:01:18:12
bathe in barrels.

00:01:19:03 - 00:01:20:14
That’s the life
we’re living now,

00:01:20:14 - 00:01:21:10
and it isn’t right.

00:01:22:08 - 00:01:24:00
And the whole world is watching.

00:01:25:02 - 00:01:27:07
This is the life
of a Palestinian.

00:01:27:12 - 00:01:28:17
In the shadow of the occupation,

00:01:29:17 - 00:01:31:24
in the shadow of a world that
does not stand with us.

00:01:32:09 - 00:01:33:22
This is the life
of a Palestinian.

00:01:35:16 - 00:01:40:11
Down came the rocket and
I knew it was my daughter.

00:01:40:11 - 00:01:41:19
She didn’t make it.

00:01:43:08 - 00:01:45:17
I ran over the rubble,
through the fire.

00:01:45:21 - 00:01:47:13
I didn’t care if another
rocket was coming.

00:01:47:13 - 00:01:48:15
Because I knew it was her.

00:01:53:00 - 00:01:56:11
We are alive, but
we’re not really living.

00:01:57:12 - 00:01:59:00
Or maybe it’s truer
to say we’re dead,

00:01:59:00 - 00:02:00:08
but the heartbeat remains.

00:02:01:01 - 00:02:02:11
The day my daughter was killed,

00:02:02:11 - 00:02:03:15
my life shut down.

00:02:04:09 - 00:02:07:03
Even when my phone rings,
I don’t want to answer.

00:02:07:03 - 00:02:08:24
I can’t bear to talk,
even for a minute.

00:02:09:12 - 00:02:11:22
I have no will to
speak to anyone,

00:02:11:24 - 00:02:13:06

00:02:13:23 - 00:02:16:19
I just want to sit with
my daughter’s belongings and her memories.
