Motti finds hope in unexpected places. In the kind priest who lives nearby- you would never expect that! Also, in his grouchy old neighbor, and the young helpful Germans. In his fathers childhood friend, and in the stray cat that roams the streets.
I learned from this that hope can come in any shapes or sizes, and you can be a hero in your own way. Motti discovers this while Israel’s fate is being tested. He may even be a hero himself!
I cant imagine living in the fear that war is coming to my hometown! Motti is so brave! I don't know how he could do what he did, while everything around him was crumbling. He discovered his own hero inside himself.
