PALESTINE

A unique perspective on the world

An episode from the series THROUGH YOUR EYES

Synopsis

In the heart of the Palestinian territories, Bethlehem is a land of history and religious fervor. A land where the church bells ring while the muezzin calls for prayer, and where, for centuries, Christians and Muslims have lived together in harmony. A land full of religious symbols and also the object of a political battle.

Palestinians have thousands of ways to preserve their culture. Maha shows Sophie traditional wedding dresses that she still embroiders herself to maintain a link between the Palestine of yesterday and today.
