A widely shared video depicting the Palestinian tragedy and the Al-Aqsa Flood operation through Lego-style characters has drawn significant attention across social media.
The film tells the story of a Palestinian child who owns a camera and uses it to document Palestine before the occupation begins destroying everything around him and Palestinians are stripped of their homes and lives.

The video moves between two periods. The first portrays the beginning of the occupation and the destruction of Palestinian life, while the second shows resistance fighters planning and carrying out the Al-Aqsa Flood operation, breaking through the barrier and crossing into the occupied territories.
The main character leading the resistance fighters is depicted with features resembling martyr Yahya Sinwar. The film presents him as the same child who once carried the camera, before occupation forces arrested his mother, tortured her, beat him, destroyed his camera and seized his home.
The film then recreates scenes from the Al-Aqsa Flood operation, showing resistance fighters entering their occupied lands and restoring them to how they appeared before the occupation.
During the sequence, the main character is shot but continues walking towards his former home. After entering, memories of his mother return to him. He eventually sits on a sofa inside the house, leans against his rifle and dies.
Social media users described the film as deeply moving, saying it portrayed the Palestinian tragedy and the accumulated anger that erupted in the Al-Aqsa Flood operation, whose third anniversary falls today.
