Artist Raafat Hattab, pumps water and waters and olive tree with the song "Love" in the background (by the Lebanese singer Ahmad Kaabour). The local looks, the deep connection to the land and the olive tree as the national symbol of the Palestinian village, goes awry as the video camera zooms out and reveals that the olive tree and Hattab are in the center of Rabin Square. The point of view instantly converts the planted into the displaced.
