[CPH:DOX '24] The filmmaker approaches the Palestinian women in her family, focusing on her relationship with actress Hiam Abbass. Over the film it always hovers over a phrase that her grandmother said to her mother: "Do not open the door to the sorrows of the past". The story of these surviving women refers to the need for memory not to end up lost. But it not only talks about the past but also about a family reunion, a few years in which Hiam and her mother Nemat were able to recover a broken relationship. This link between memory and the present moment finds a moving balance.
