The alarm sounds. A deafening explosion ricochets through the night. As the Kids of the Rocket Siren bunker down in their family�s rocket shelter, each one can tell by the sound of the boom whether the projectile fell in a distant farmers field or on the house next door. The reality for the kids who live in Sderot, an Israeli town that neighbors the Gaza strip, is a constant reminder that they are in the midst of a deadly conflict. Kids of the rocket Siren melds verite, interviews and haunting archival to document the kids who have grown up with rocket shelters, sirens and deadly blasts; young persons who haven�t given up on peace, who cling to universal elements that can unify the starkest enemies.
