Reviews

Zoabi’s Cannes award-winning short film tells the story of a Palestinian boy and his father on their journey home to the city of Nazareth. What should be a simple journey is instead beset by the tensions of a politically charged atmosphere and the militarized reality, each fuelling the struggle of a father bringing up his strong willed son.
