In October 2023, 2 weeks after Israeli-American teacher Liat Atzili and her husband Aviv were kidnapped from their kibbutz in southern Israel by Hamas forces, filmmaker Brandon Kramer, a relative, follows the experiences of Liat’s family, providing an intimate & real-time portrait of conflicting views, emotions, and strategies to secure their release. Disappointed & angered by Israel’s response to the attacks, Liat’s father, Yehuda, lobbies members of Congress to prioritize the release of the hostages, criticizes Netanyahu, and advocates for a peaceful reconciliation with Palestinians; Netta, Liat’s son (who narrowly escaped an attack), expresses anger toward Hamas and anti-war protestors; and Liat’s mother Chaya and younger sister Tal both clash with Yehuda and want politics left out of the equation.
