In this clip Marwa recalls a childhood memory of her family's apartment in Hamra, Beirut being hit by shrapnel, the windows were broken and her sister narrowly avoided injury. She recalls waking up, calling for her father and fainting. Her family spent a few days in bunkers under their building until they were able to get away to the village of Hariss in South Lebanon where they had family connections.
