Beautiful moving heartbreaking while also deconstructing prejudices about Arab people . Who has the right to self defense and under what circumstances who’s really the terrorist . Also the bigger argument against solitary confinement and for  basic decent treatment for prisoners.

It didn’t feel fictional it was so tangible and real . But the fact is currently it is the reality for thousands of Palestinians both adult and children who are locked up without just case and who are being bombed and starved out .
