Home
Muna Alkurd (18) is forced to share half of her house with Israeli settlers. Nayef Abassi (26) can’t get a building permit for his house and his animals' barn has been demolished. The pressure of the occupation is very present for both young Palestinians. Yet they feel at home in East Jerusalem and they are trying to build a future for themselves in the city where they were born.
Omar Abdelqader's (25) story is quite different. He’s an Palestinian Arab with Israeli citizenship, which allows him to live anywhere in Israel. He is tired of the occupation and is about to leave East Jerusalem for Jaffa, where perspectives look better for him.
Home paints three intimate portraits of young Palestinians living under occupation.
