A title which quotes former Israeli Minister President Golda Meir. The film is a portrait in nine formally very diverse chapters of the Palestinian refugee camp of Nabatieh in southern Lebanon: its inhabitants’ solidarity with the fight for liberation, the anti-imperialist context and the destruction of Nabatieh by Israeli airstrikes in May 1974. The director, Mustafa Abu Ali, was one of the founding fathers of the PLO film organisation.
