YALLA PARKOUR, de Areeb Zuaiter, presentarà al #Docs2025 un documental on l'Areeb es troba amb Ahmed, un atleta de parkour a Gaza, i comença un viatge on es creuen aspiracions oposades i on la nostàlgia es topa amb l’ambició.

فيلم "يلا باركور" قدّم رؤية قوية حول الهوية والمرونة والطموح، منطلقًا من غزة إلى الساحة العالمية. بفضل قصّته الجذابة؛ يواصل الفيلم لفت انتباه الجمهور بعد عرضه في مهرجان البحر الأحمر السينمائي الدولي.

وبدعمٍ من صندوق البحر الأحمر، وصل الفيلم إلى مهرجان برلين السينمائي الدولي. استمع إلى المخرجة عريب زعيتر وأحمد مطر وهم يحكوا لنا رحلة الفيلم، وكيف دعم صندوق البحر الأحمر المشروع.

Can you imagine that we Palestinians are living in a time where we could hear about the killing of our family members at any moment?
Don’t forget Gaza.

Since the genocide started my life is stuck, everything turned from beautiful memories to a nightmare, Israel demolished everything.

I spent seven years in Sweden but my heart was still in Gaza thinking about my family my home and my childhood, missing everything there despite the suffering there, but I missed Gaza.

In Gaza I grew up knowing that we are never safe, because bombs and attacks can start at any moment.

[Ahmed Matar @matargaza]

When I was a child I always heard about the human rights, believing that everyone should have them, but growing in Gaza is different, it seems like human rights doesn’t apply on us.

We Palestinians are not numbers.
We Palestinians have stories and dreams.

[Ahmed Matar @matargaza]

In Gaza’s land, where children dream,
Beneath the weight of shadows, it may seem,
A tapestry of hope, we weave,
A plea for peace, for all to believe.
