On July 27, 2024, a rocket struck the football field in Majdal Shams, taking the lives of 12 children. This tragic event serves as the starting point for a new performative, documentary work that seeks to give voice and presence to the children who are no longer with us, and to tell a story of place, loss, and community.

The audience will be invited to a football field where they will watch Majdal’s youth team practice. This is a normal, daily training session, where the boys do what boys are supposed to do – play. At the same time, the audience will have headphones through which they will hear a compilation of texts, memories, and recorded voices… collected pieces of lives that were and are no longer. In the gap between the liveliness of football practice and the silence of disaster, questions arise about fate, the end, and the power of life.
