Kifah
A apresentação de Jordan ao Oscar. Morando entre a Palestina e Israel, um pai cruza a fronteira diariamente para trabalhar e sustentar sua família. Quando seu filho se machucar em um acidente, ele fará de tudo para chegar ao hospital o mais rápido possível. O único problema é que ele está do lado errado da parede.
After his recovery, middle-aged Hamza has continued a practice he began 20 years ago when he was freed from an Israeli prison: he goes into the woods every day to chase the lion that the locals don’t think exists. Hamza struggles to reach a peaceful place. Despite his wife’s pleadings and the villagers’ contempt, Hamza sits his baits and traps in the forest, hoping to defeat the mysterious threat. He finds refuge in his journey from social rejection and denial. In the woods, Hamza is free to act according to his beliefs, fighting his own battle to heal an open wound – the trauma of losing his childhood friend, and the horrific memories of torture and guilt.
