This documentary explores the life and political views of Raymonda Tawill, a "liberated" Arab Palestinian woman whose political views have earned her brickbats from both sides of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Her activism was so aggravating to authorities (she tried to open lines of communication between Palestinians and Isralies) that she was exiled to Paris. In one amusing segment, her children fondly reminisce about the time she was held under house arrest: it was about the only time she was at home for a significant period of time.
