Under the Domim Tree [עץ הדומים תפוס]
Author(s): Dafna Angel
Based on the book by the same name, which is the sequel to The Summer of Aviya. Aviya is a student in a Hadasim boarding school. In her group there are only two Sabra (Israeli born): Aviya and her best friend. The rest of the kids are survivors, orphans, troubled by their past and present. Every kid has their own hardship, and in dealing with their problems they become a stronger group. Aviya is a bit of an outsider, because she is "normal," but she exposes her own harsh story to the boy she loves, and they become a couple.
