He teaches his pupils about the Zionist movement and the history of the Jews, but in one of the days, he says something that was not stated in the curriculum, so he gets fired from his job, and his dreams of becoming the school’s principle, go with the wind.<br />In the year of 2000, Mr. Khalid meets, in his empty home, and for the first time, his history and feelings, and then meets his dead mother and father , and also meets the man working for the intelligence,&nbsp; and his girlfriend Manal, whom he’d&nbsp; lost because of his silence and fear.<br />The play is about the story of the individual and collective Palestinian persons of this country, within the borders of 1948.<br />*This play won the best actor and best play award at the Msraheed Festival, 2009 in Acre.</p>
