While politicians struggle to make peace, the human cost of the Middle East conflict is the subject of a play which is proving hugely popular in Israel.

"The Return to Haifa" tells the story of a Palestinian family whose son is adopted by a Jewish couple when they are forced to leave Haifa during the 1948 war.

Aljazeera's Adam Pines reports on the impact the play stirred amongst its viewers.
