The(ir) Blurb...

Life is lonely for young Palestinian, Shukri. He spends his days on the internet, immersed in a world where Western popstars preach self-love and unity, and where he can forget the lack of acceptance he faces in everyday life. But a life dreaming of paradise abroad does not bode well for a teenager stuck in East Jerusalem. He desperately wants to connect with others like him, who feel caught between an occupation, globalisation, and the universal growing pains that come with adulthood.
