THE STORIES OF FOUR PALESTINIAN BOYS

In March of 2015, the Cassels, working with American Friends Service Committee and Defense for Children International Palestine, traveled to the West Bank to record the stories of four youth who experienced detention by Israeli Defense Forces. From these recordings, Amr Kawji and Nawal Musleh developed the film Detaining Dreams. This presentation will explore what occurs to these youth after “the knock on the door” by the Israeli Defense Forces.
