Introduction

Energetic Oum Yazan is trying desperately to keep her family together whilst a war is raging outside. The family sits together around a large table at midday, everyone trying to make themselves heard above the cannonade of bombs and machine gun fire. There is hardly any water and every trip outside the door spells danger on account of the snipers on the rooftops above. Up above, threatening noises can be heard. Who’s that knocking at the door? Could it be Oum Yazan’s husband, whose return she has been anxiously awaiting, or are there strange men outside, looking for valuables?
