At-Tuwani Project

Ameer is just 12, but he's already an adult. Every afternoon, after school, he grazes his family's flock of sheep. Ameer has a dream, passed on for generations: to see his land and his people free from the Israeli military occupation. This is not a movie. This is Ameer's everyday life. Welcome to At-Tuwani, a little Palestinian village between the arid hills south-east from Hebron, in the so-called West Bank's C Area. Under constant menace of evacuation since 1999, the village repeatedly undergoes attacks from Israeli soldiers who live in the near settlement of Ma'on. In response to all these injustices, ten years ago it was created the Popular Resistance Committee, as a direct expression of local peasant class.
