Inspired by the story that Sallam was told as a child (although Radieh has become Farha — played by newcomer Karam Taher), it addresses the horror of the Nakba (the violent removal of Palestinians from their homeland), which is harrowingly depicted from the unique perspective of a young girl trapped inside a single room.

The pivotal scene in "Farha" showing the murder of a Palestinian family depicts the wartime Israeli military in a poor light. Yet far from being unthinkable, such incidents have been documented by Israeli historians as common during the Nakba. "The Jewish soldiers who took part in the massacre also reported horrific scenes: babies whose skulls were cracked open, women raped or burned alive in houses, and men stabbed to death," the historian Ilan Pappe wrote in his book, "The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine," describing accounts of a massacre that took place in the Palestinian village of Dawaymeh. The massacre in Dawaymeh was just one of countless incidents of ethnic cleansing during this period, many of which have survived in the memory of Palestinians but are only now being recognized by others.

While the exact events in the film may not have happened, it is not a lie, nor libelous, to say that Palestinian civilians, including women and children, were killed during the creation of the state. Efforts by Jewish Israelis to suppress this narrative only further entrench existing hostility and calcify any efforts toward coexistence."No reasonable person still believes there were no acts of expulsion and massacre by the Jewish side in the 1948 war," Israeli historian Benny Morris has written of his country's earlier attempts to hide this history... Still, the painful reality is that some Israeli soldiers did kill men, women and children on the path to creating a Jewish state.
