For the next few minutes, he has to endure listeners' questions, and a surprise guest who will reveal what has become of his mother.
Fatenah
Inspired from a true story. Fatenah, a Palestinian woman who lives in Gaza Strip. Her simple wishes were her consolation in the abnormal living situation around her. But when she discovers a lump near her breast, she will start a journey of torment, loss and pain and will struggle to save her dreams from getting shattered by the injustice and cruelty that surrounds her world.

While there, she is forced to come to terms with her families past in an unexpected turn of events.
Phatwa
