During the 1967 hostilities, the midwife Umm-Ismail helped other refugee women safely give birth while she fled from Ein el-Sultan camp near Jericho to Jordan, despite being separated from her own children and surrounded by the ongoing conflict. In this short film, Umm-Ismail recalls her harrowing memories of those fateful days and the immediate aftermath.
