Upon finding that his own shanty home still stands, Eyal resolves to stay put, remembering his father’s prayer that the family would return to this home if ever separated. Eyal keeps watch at the village way till he spots a figure he believes to be his mother – he chases after the figure, leaving his shanty village behind.

Eyal declines, believing that the only way he’ll be reunited his parents. After Pree leaves, Eyal spends days waiting for his parents return… his hope gradually fades, until one morning, his shanty door opens and he turns to see… his family has finally come home.
