Dancing Palestine
Lamees Almakkawy • United Kingdom, Palestine • 2024 • 30 min.
As the Palestinian identity continues to be threatened, Palestinians turn to their folk dance, the dabke, to assert their existence. The dabke is not only an homage to their history and culture, but a way to assert their existence. Ultimately, they dance because they love life, and insist on living it.
