      The gripping true story follows Israeli journalist Amir Tibon and his family as they navigate a harrowing escape from Kibbutz Nahal Oz on October 7, 2023, during a Hamas attack. Awakened by mortar explosions, Amir and his wife sheltered their two young daughters in a reinforced safe room, trying to keep them calm amidst the chaos outside. With limited phone battery, Amir texted his concerns about their safety. Meanwhile, his parents, having cut short their morning swim in Tel Aviv, raced to their aid, armed only with a pistol and a determination to save their family. Tibon recounts this ordeal in detail, highlighting the bravery that led to their rescue and the systemic failures that allowed such violence to occur. The narrative intertwines personal experiences with the historical context of their community and the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Drawing on his expertise as an international correspondent, Tibon includes interviews with kibbutz residents, Israeli soldiers, and experts, creating a comprehensive portrait of a community caught in a cycle of war and occupation. This account is not just about one family's survival; it reflects the larger struggle for peace amidst enduring tensions.
