The landscapes in question are those which Palestinian children living in refugee camps in Jordan imagine as they draw on postcards. On the back of each card is a drawing of a town they don’t know. Athens, New York, Paris... On the other side, a text describing their feelings towards the towns.
Later, Amal looks at the images of these children reading their text, showing people their drawings. She translates and being herself a Palestinian exile, links in the dreams of these children with her own experiences and scars. The accounts blend and interweave with each other, points of view shift and put together a splintered geography of contemporary Palestine.
