The Palestinian Estrangement![]() The first T.V. drama-epic relating the story of the Palestinian wound extending all along the Arab and human conscience through the life of a rural Palestinian family that moves restlessly between the refined, the far, and the epics since the thirties of the last century and up to the end of the sixties. This work depicts the struggle of this family against poverty, destitution and the dominance of the traditional leadership on one hand, and the policies of the British mandate aiming at dispossessing the Arabs of their lands in compliance with Belfor promise on the other hand, passing through the Palestinian countryside revolution in the thirties (1936-1939), and the efforts to go past the affliction on the particular and general sides, until June war and its effects, and resisting the occupation inside the occupied homeland. Away from the slogans and the rhetorical styles and the simple romantic handling, this work presents a factual human handling, and introduces complex human patterns different in their responses to the general circumstances, picturing their dreams, ambitions, victories, disappointments, changes and struggle for survival and resurrection from the ashes of the defeats and calamities. It introduces patterns receiving their afflictions from the unseen, and giving out their share of sacrifices, carrying with them the burden of the extending memory where the particular welds with the general, and the subjective with the human. It is a drama-epic that fills a great gap in the Arab drama, whose handling aspires to ascend up to the right level of the Palestinian issue, and whose events and persons move against an authentic background historically, nationally, educationally and publicly. While setting out from the circumstances of the Palestinian issue, this drama ends with the general human issue like all the great artistic and literary works.
