About 300,000 Palestinian lives in the refugee camp in Lebanon. Most of them don't have enough job, money, or even human rights to live in this neighboring country. And they even can't get back to their land. People laugh, struggle, and live their life accepting their circumstances. 2008, Lebanon.

現在30万人を超えるパレスチナ人が、レバノンの難民キャンプに暮らしている。ほとんどは充分な仕事も権利も得られず、故郷に帰ることすらできない。そんな状況を受け入れながら、人々は笑い、もがきながら生きている。
