Yedidyah’s Collection
10 year old Yedidyah lives on the Morag settlement, the most southern settlement in Gush Katif. Yedidyah collects Kassam rocket shrapnel, bullet casings from rifles, machine guns, and so on – evidence of the complex reality he lives in. The film follows Yedidyah during the happy and busy day time and during the night, when the fear of falling mortars, terrorists and the disengagement plan is intensified.
