Ariel, Alaa’s neighbour and friend, is a liberal Zionist, critical of the military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza yet faithful to the project of Israel. When he wakes up one morning to find that all Palestinians have suddenly vanished, Ariel begins searching for clues to the secret of their collective disappearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat search, and Ariel’s reactions to it, intimately reveal the fissures at the heart of the Palestinian question.
