In Beirut, Syrian construction workers who escaped the war in their country are building a skyscraper while their own houses at home are being shelled. They are not allowed to leave the construction site after 7pm as the government imposes a curfew on Syrian refugees. They work the whole day on the construction site, while, in the evening, they watch images of their home cities being bombed.
"When war begins, the builders have to leave to another country where the war just ended. Waiting until war has swept through their homeland. Then they return to rebuild it." (from the video)
