"My Jaffa" by Robiros Manthoulis, (53') 1998
Robiros Manthoulis's documentary (Jaffa la mienne) concerns the dispersion of Palestinians who were forced to leave their homeland after the 1947-48 riots and the establishment of the Israeli State. Fifty years after their forced departure, the refugees of Jaffa timidly return to the city where they were born to see the garden of their house, now confiscated, the school, the pharmacy and what remains of the old neighbourhood.
