04/22/2021 An insightful look at the lives of gay Palestinian Israeli Arabs that shows their personal, social and political struggles as gay Palestinians living in Israel. From intercultural relationships to coming out to political activism to thoughts of emigration it's a story that is rarely if ever seen, and should be. See more 11/01/2018 An amazingly touching and intimate portrayl of friendship and sexuality of a group of Palestinians living under the ever-present context of Israeli rule. This is a story completely worthy of the grace and attention the filmmaker lends, and one that is done justice through excellent storytelling and an endlessly charming cast of subjects.
