Want to be Angry
3 years after losing his father in a suicide bombing in a train station in Nahariya, 12 and a half-year-old Yam has to decide whether and how to celebrate his upcoming Bar-Mitzvah without his dad. And he has another mission: to get to the scene of the bombing and deal with the guilt he feels over his father’s death, for not being able to say sorry for the way he acted just beforehand and for not having the chance to say goodbye. This is the story of a boy, a victim of terror, who has a license to be angry, but no one to be angry with.
