A Film by Noa Ben Hagai
(Israel, 2009, 75 Minutes, Color, Hebrew/Arabic, English subtitles)



"At 14, my grandmother's sister disappeared from her home in Israel.

Years later, she started sending my family letters with desperate pleas for contact, written from a refugee camp where she lived as an Arab.

My family chose to turn their backs.
 
I discovered her letters after my grandmother died and set out on an emotional quest to uncover the past and to reveal the story of my torn family."
                               Noa Ben Hagai, Director.

QUOTES

"Blood Relation
 is a miracle that takes place on rare occasions in documentary film making. The magic and strength of the film resides in its removing the "conflict" and the occupation from the domain of the political-topical and placing it within the realms of the familial and the personal, which are familiar to every person whoever he may be. Compassionate and modest in its outlook, it presents an unexpected point of view and succeeds in offering its viewers new insights about reality and themselves. It is like gazing intimately into a mirror. An uncommon experience of looking at things as they are." Yael Gvirtz, Yediot Ahronot.
