Abstract: "A man who left Jerusalem with his wife and children and emigrated to America receives a message from his father, after years of complete estrangement from his parents and brother: 'I am in the hospital'. He gets on a plane to accompany him through his illness and confronts his past and also his life in the present, in the shadow of two traumatic separations: the one that has already happened, the forced separation from the house he was born and raised in; and the one that is expected, the last farewell from his father. Why were his family expelled and why was he forced to live in complete solitude in the United States too, separate from his wife in from their shared home? How does this all relate to the fact that many years ago he wrote a story about a girl named palestine "because this man is a writer who makes a living from writing memoirs of others, and in his writing one never knows what is real and what is false."--
