KIBBUTZ KFAR AZA, THE NIGHT BEFORE

Yael got into the box and closed the lid over her and sat

in her little house,

It was quiet inside.

It was quiet outside.

YAEL'S HOUSE

I'm moving her.

Slowly, slowly. So she doesn't wake up.

Don't wake her up.

-You want simply to leave her? -No, of course not.

I don't want to find myself on the floor in the morning.

She'll sleep better in her room.

What are the plans for tomorrow?

Just a kite festival.

A kite festival. What fun, a dream.

Have you made plans with someone?

Everyone will probably be there, right?

All right, I'm dead tired, good night.

Good night.

A TALE OF FIVE BALLOONS

ONE DAY IN OCTOBER

HOME

Sweetheart, get up, come.

Roncho, come to me, come.

Come. Good dog. Come...

Good dog.

Wow, wow, let me sleep, for God's sake.

Oh, my God.

Everything is okay?

They went too far this time.

Come.

-Man, are you all right? -Ellay, are you in the saferoom?

Please, everyone, report that you are safe.

Emergency squad, get to the armory, quickly.

We hear Arabic outside, scary.

Man, a lot of terrorists.

You have to block the safe room's door.

And save the battery.

This is crazy.

A reported terrorist breach in your area.

Get to a secure area immediately.

Better to mute it.

Hopefully it will be over by the time Yael wakes up.

Good thing you moved her here last night.

Yeah, huh?

My parents also got a message.

There are terrorists in Ofakim, they hear gunfire.

Okay, okay, the army will enter soon, and this will all be over.

Ariel.

They are here.

-Who? -Terrorists inside the kibbutz.

They say they see them in the security cameras

roaming outside their houses.

I think I'll go get her something to eat.

No, wait, one second, don't go.

She's probably about to wake up.

Wait till this ends, then go.

I don't think this is going to end soon,

we don't even have water here.

It scares me that you'll go out.

If she wakes up crying it won't be good.

I'm just grabbing a few things, I'll be back in two minutes.

Okay, do it quietly.

What do you want to do with this?

I don't know.

Just in case.

I heard voices from outside.

Good thing Yael is asleep.

Help! They're inside our house. They're breaking into the MAMAD.

Alert everyone. Block your doors now.

Please, we don't wanna die!!!

They're inside the houses.

Who wrote?

ORIGINAL FOOTAGE

Everything is fine.

I'm leaving her with YouTube, okay?

I think it's okay.

But we have to block the door somehow.

Yes.

One second.

Shit, they cut the power.

All good, all good.

We need to be quiet now.

Good sweetie.

No, Mommy

-Shh, we need to be quiet. -Mommy!

Shh, we need to be quiet, my darling.

Come here.

I know, I know.

I know, I know.

Quiet, quiet, quiet.

Please, my love. Please.

Listen, that's it, enough. I'm putting the phone here.

We need to save the battery. I'm only at three percent.

We need to send the family a message every now and then,

and it is stressing that everyone asks for help

but no one comes, okay?

-I need to pee. -What?

I need to pee.

Great.

-Funny. -I'm serious, what can we do?

Thank God the room is dark.

-Come on... -What happened?

I peed all over my pants.

Open the door. Muhanad!

Get out, get out of here.

Give me the money!

Take what you want and get out of here.

Quiet now! Shh!

You sons of bitches!

You sons of bitches!

They are at our home, we love you.

Take whatever you want and get out of here!

You son of a bitch!

Ellay, they are not Hamas, just civilians.

They don't even have any weapons.

Come here, show me where.

There's a baby here, please.

There's a baby here, please.

My love, listen. They're leaving.

Everything is okay.

What? What do you want? Take what you want and leave!

What are you doing? No, no! You bastard, you son of a bitch!

Ellay, they're burning our house,

they're burning our house!

Son of a bitches.

They're burning us, Ellay.

Ahamad, let's just wait here. They'll come out soon.

HOSPITAL, DAY 15

Take it.

Better? Better.

We need to leave now.

It's dangerous to breathe this in.

Do you hear that? They're out here.

They're waiting for us to come out, and then they'll kill us.

We need to get her out, now.

No matter what, Yael will get out of here alive.

I'll wrap her very well,

and we'll run really fast.

That's our only option, okay?

Let's go through the fire.

Roncho! Come, come to me! Come to me. Good dog, come...

Ariel,

he will not come.

Now!

Are you okay, my beautiful girl?

She'll be okay, it's just burns.

They think we are still in there.

That's right, sweetie.

You're okay. You're okay.

Ariel, we need to go wash the burns.

Ariel, look at me, look at me. You are not leaving me alone.

Get up.

Ariel, get up.

Ariel, get up.

Ariel, look at me! Look at me!

You're not leaving me.

Get up, we need to wash the burns.

Get up already!

To the shower.

Now.

We need to keep the burns clean

so they don't get infected.

I'm telling you, run me over with the jeep.

Come here you, the one who fired.

How did it feel when you killed the soldier?

Abed, you go in there and I'll go in through the window.

Are you okay?

I think that they left.

I think that they left.

Let's get out of here.

My beauty...

I miss you.

HOSPITAL, DAY 42

This can't be the end of our story.

After everything we've been through.

No nonsense, huh?

I'm counting on you.

You know how many times

I imagined you after the internship?

You worked so hard to be a doctor.

This not the way you need to be in a hospital.

It can't end like this.

Come on, sweetie. Come on, sweetie.

Sit here.

Ellay, we have to get out of here.

The roof will soon fall on us.

Take it.

Stay here, I want to check that no one is there.

Ellay, if I'm not coming back,

run to the open spaces of the kibbutz.

Under no circumstances should you come close to the houses.

Don't even think about asking for help, because there is none.

You are coming back.

Do you hear me?

You are coming back.

Ellay? Ellay, come. Come my love.

I found a way out.

You can't go out like that.

Take this.

Take this. Wear this.

Roncho!

Ariel.

Bring her. Bring her.

We're going out. We're going out.

Hey, come, come, come. It's all right.

Resuscitation team urgently to ICU!

Code blue, code blue!

Mommy!

Mommy!

Come, come...

My love!

Are you okay?

See this? From there.

What if there are terrorists there?

I don't know, I don't know...

We cannot go back. Come. Come.

Shh! We need to be quiet now.

My love. Here, do you want to eat?

It's okay, I don't think they heard us.

Look.

See what I found here.

Take it and drink.

Pour some on my hand, I will wet Yael'i.

It feels good? Yes?

Good, drink a bit.

Give me your hand.

We'll stay here until the army comes.

If they haven't come by now, no one will come.

My love, they obviously didn't understand

what was happening here.

Or they got to our home and thought

there was no one to save.

They will come.

I was sure we would stay for an hour in the safe room,

and they will come and save us, and all this will be over.

I don't understand how no one came until now.

There's definitely a reason.

Whatever the reason,

if we hadn't have fought and saved ourselves,

we would be dead by now.

Without Yael'i I would have fallen apart.

You wouldn't fall apart, my love.

You could never fall apart.

I would, I would. I would have given up.

Yael'i saved us. Yael'i, our hero.

Ariel!

Ariel. Ariel.

Something is wrong.

No, no, no. She is losing consciousness.

She's falling asleep.

Don't sleep. Don't sleep.

Don't sleep, don't sleep,

Yael'i needs to have oxygen right now.

We have to get out of here now.

Don't sleep. Don't sleep. Don't sleep. Don't sleep...

My pretty, please!

Open your eyes. Look. Don't sleep.

Looli, Looli! Bring her to me.

Bring her to me. We're getting out of here now.

Bring her to me.

Are you ready? We're getting out of here now.

Looli, what's happening?

-I can't. -No!

Get out, get out. Take her.

Go to the kibbutz's gate. Run. I'm after you.

-Look at me, look at me. -Ariel.

Look at me! We're getting out of here now. Give me your hand.

Please get out of here now. I can't.

You can do it. Give me your hand. Come on.

Come on. Honey.

Come on, come on.

Come, Looli.

Hello! Who is that there? Stop!

No, we're from the kibbutz.

We're Israeli, man! We're Israeli!

We have a burned man with baby

and someone with him, barely walking.

Continue towards the gate.

There are people there. They will help you.

I don't believe it.

It is dangerous here.

Come, come. Come.

HOSPITAL, DAY 53

A WEEK LATER

Look.

Yael'i. Who is it?

Yael'i... Hello, my lovely.

Glasses?

These are mother's glasses...

Right?

My love.

Do you know how much Mama loves you?

Yes, my love.

How much?

The most in all the world.

How did we get out of it, my love?

How did we get out of it?

Three out of three!
