theme
Throughout the film are distressing scenes as distraught people fear for the fate of loved ones believed to have been taken hostage by a terrorist group. People grieve for family members killed during and in the aftermath of the October 7 attacks. There are also verbal references to the killing of and threat faced both by those who were targeted in the attacks and those caught up in the retaliatory action on Gaza; these are not described in graphic detail, however. A wall is seen with splashes of old, discoloured blood over it in the aftermath of violence. People, including family members, have heated conversations on their differing political views and opinions over the best approach to solving the crisis in the Middle East.
