SYNOPSIS: Parents tell their children if they excel in school they will enjoy a comfortable life. But this "A" student from Gaza refugee camp discovers that being a stateless refugee means his high grades are worthless. And how does he react?

This exercise film was produced part of the Hope Films workshop held for the benefit of Gaza refugee camp residents in Jordan.
