In East Jerusalem, Palestinians whose houses are declared illegal by Israel are being forced to
destroy their own homes. The film follows three families who have been forced to take hammers to
their own homes. It traces the events that led to the demolitions, where the families have gone
afterwards, and the emotional and economic impact it has had on them. The filmmaker also charts how
city planning and municipal policies have led to a set of building rules that many argue are pushing
Palestinians towards the outskirts of the city, disrupting their lives and shifting the city's
demographics in favour of the Israeli majority
