Children of Jerusalem - Tamar

A portrait of Neveen, a 12 year old Palestinian girl who lives in the Shufat refugee camp on the outskirt of Jerusalem.

A portrait of Asya, an 11 year old Russian immigrant to Jerusalem, this film is about one family's adjustment to a new life. From the issues of cultural, political and religious diversity to the simple act of making new friends, this portrait of Asya is indicative of life for many ethnic Jewish immigrants to Jerusalem.

Ibrahim is an eleven-year-old Palestinian Arab boy living in East Jerusalem. Every day on his way home from the Anglican School in West Jerusalem, an international school with students from over 40 countries, Ibrahim passes through an Orthodox Jewish neighbourhood, a secular Jewish neighbourhood, and an Arab neighbourhood where Palestinians wear traditional dress. His life blends modern-day activities such as soccer and Nintendo with respect for the traditional ways of his grand-father in Galilee, and his nanny in the Old City of Jerusalem.
