DescriptionA traumatized Lebanese family from the village of Aitaroun in southern Lebanon takes advantage of a temporary halt in Israeli air strikes to flee. Aitaroun was the site of a weeklong siege of Hezbollah fighters by Israeli forces, and families were trapped in their homes for several days while the Israeli bombardment flattened many of the nearby houses. This family feared leaving the father behind, as there were only enough vehicles to evacuate women and children.
