Rebels and Patriots

Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not an Arab eyes?

Israeli-Palestinian co-creation following four friends and how mandatory conscription to the IDF affects them.

One wants to get out, one's a pilot, one was never drafted, one's torn inside.

A raw multilingual, physical portrayal that exposes the consequences army life has on the mental-health of the teenagers enlisted.

It explores themes like protest against war, self-harm and what it means to be Israeli and peace-pursuing; the critical voice for coexistence under the pressures of politically motivated violence.

Who's a rebel? Who's a patriot?
