Sobi al-Zobaidi

Samira Badran is a Palestinian artist living in Spain. in 2002 I was invited to participate in a conference in Barcelona where I met Samira and she invited me to her studio.

Filmmaker Sobhi al-Zobaidi lives in Ramallah with his wife and baby daughter. ‘Kalandia’ is the checkpoint the family has to cross, whenever they want to get to Jerusalem. The film shows the humiliation Palestinians suffer there every single day.

Daily life of Palestinians of Gaza during the year of 2005.

A personal journey into the memory of Palestinian refugees. Sobhi al-Zobaidi's first personal film, produced on the even of the 50th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba.

A Palestinian filmmaker is commissioned by an American organisation to make a documentary film, which is to depict Jerusalem as a city of peace and coexistence between Jews and Arabs. But while making the film, the filmmaker keeps running into situations that are very different from what he is trying to depict. The reality of things on the ground, proves to be much stronger than its representation.
