Contents Summary

Part 2 of interview with Hashim Sawa'ed, in Al-Jalasi neighborhood of Kammaneh. He speaks from the point of view of a lawyer, but also as a human being, citing the importance of human rights over national rights. He describes how authorities crash people's homes when they are at work. He tells of discrimination felt in all spheres of living. He expresses his desire for this film to show the "dirty side" of Israel that the media keeps hidden from the rest of the world. Another interview has a similar tone. Yet, Ibrahim Hussein Sawa'ed also speaks tenderly of his home, the land that he has bled upon, the trees that he has planted and the free and simple life of the Bedouin that can no longer exist.
