ABOUT THE FILM

Israel's official entry to the 2010 Oscars! A powerful crime drama set on the streets of Jaffaâs Ajami neighborhood â a melting pot of cultures and conflicting views among Jews, Muslims and Christians â and told through the eyes of a cross-section of the cityâs inhabitants: a young Israeli (Shahir Kabaha) fighting a criminal vendetta against his family, a Palestinian refugee (Ibrahim Frege) working illegally to finance a life-saving surgery, a Jewish police detective (Eran Naim) obsessed with finding his missing brother, and an affluent Palestinian (Scandar Copti) dreaming of a future with his Jewish
girlfriend. As their stories intersect â and the filmâs narrative shifts back and forth in time â we witness a dramatic collision of different worlds and the tragic consequences of enemies living as neighbors.
