Me and My Father
A typical everyday life for a Palestinian breadwinner leaving the occupied territories to work in Israel in construction work: Separated from wife and children, living in plastic fabricated shelters for a month. The reunion of father and daughter is a warm moment, no longer just a cell phone relationship.
