The ruins of Lifta [where the Holocaust and the Palestinian exile meet]

DVD - 2016

"Lifta is the only Arab village abandoned in the 1948 Arab-Israeli war that has not been completely destroyed or repopulated by Jews. Its ruins are now threatened by an Israeli development plan that would convert it into an upscale Jewish neighborhood. Discovering that his parents' Holocaust experiences may have distorted his views of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Menachem--the filmmaker and an Orthodox Jew from Brooklyn--sets out to establish a personal relationship with a Palestinian."--Container.
