In 1999, when southern Lebanon was still occupied and no images of the KHIAM detention camp existed, the filmmakers met six recently released detainees to talk about their lives during these years of detention. In May 2000, the camp's prisoners were released and the prison transformed into a museum. During the July 2006 war, the KHIAM camp was completely destroyed. Eight years later, the filmmakers found the six detainees filmed in 1999 to discuss with them the liberation, the destruction of the camp, memory, history, reconstitution and the power of the image.
