Nobody’s Little Girl Anymore [כבר לא ילדה של אף אחד]

Author(s): Ben Zion Idisis
Racheli is the daughter of two deceased survivors. She is dealing with their deaths through writing about their lives in Poland, their experiences in hiding, the house they built in Israel and saying goodbye to them. Since Racheli is an actress, she decides to write a monodrama, and asks her friend to direct her play. The play is set during a rehearsal the two are doing. Racheli confronts her friend whose parents are still alive and were warriors in Israel, while Racheli's parents were hiding. They also don't agree about the staging of the play itself.
