Description of the content
The documentary Welcome to Hebron! was filmed during more than three years. The 17-years old Leila Sarsour is the main character of the film. She is a student at the Al-Qurtuba-school, a Palestinian girlschool surrounded by Israeli military installations and settlements. Leila is a Moslem girl, but she does not fit the widespread western stereotype, characterizing Arab women as weak and victimized. Leila is strong, intelligent, outspoken and have her own idea of a daily life free from oppression and violence.
