It has been a month since eleven-year-old Malaak Abed Atieh's beloved father left Gaza City to look for work in Israel, only to disappear. Every day she climbs up to the roof and waits for him, imagining that she can fly to the prison cell where she she is so sure he is held. She speaks little to anyone except her dove, Abdo.
