Documentary director Mariam Shahin has been making films about Gaza for over thirty years.

The second programme looks back at five characters and stories that Mariam covered in Gaza between 2007 and 2011: the importance of child bearing in Arab society and how fertility clinics are a big part of that; the Alfaluna school for deaf children and its founder Geraldine Shawa; Omayya Joha, a religious women who draws political cartoons for a local newspaper; Munzer Al Dayyeh, a motorbike enthusiast and motor mechanic in great demand in Gaza under the Israeli blockade; and a group of parkour artists in Khan Younis refugee camp crossing borders through their art form.

In the wake of the war in 2023, Mariam looks back at these stories and reflects on the wasted potential, lost hope and devastated lives after sixteen years of blockade, poverty and conflict.
