“From the first moment I knew I wanted to create a film that deals with an Arab cleaning woman who works in a house that has a swimming pool. I knew she must come from a place that doesn’t have much means. I heard there are such villages outside Israel, in the Occupied Territories, and I was curious to know whether there are such villages inside Israel. I started my web research and found one, 10 minutes from Tel Aviv, just near the
city of Lod. I was shocked to find out it is so close.”
“I feel resemblance between the character of the Arab cleaning woman and myself, especially in our curiosity, in dreaming of a better place. The thought that a wealthier
environment may improve her life is not always real. The will for better life, in honor and respect, seems like an ambition we both share.”
