Be/longing

Be/longing follows Jaffa resident Amal Rihan during one of the most challenging times of the year for Palestinian-Israelis: the days between Israels Memorial Day, for fallen soldiers, and Israels Independence Day. Set against the backdrop of Jaffa, a mixed city annexed to Tel Aviv, the complexities and contradictions of Amals life unfold before us, and offer an intimate look at the questions raised about centrality of place in narratives of personal identity.
