The stirring account of French journalist Jean Rolin's stay with the Christian minority in Bethlehem, Jerusalem, and Gaza in 2002 and 2003. Every scene in this beautifully written narrative - in the Nativity Church; around Arafat's completely devastated headquarters; in Ramallah, with the ghostly wall that starts and finishes in the middle of ruins' - provides a previously unseen glimpse into the lives of the Christian minority, trapped between the dominant Islamic and Jewish populations.'
