Event
Inshallah Beijing (54min) / Mazen and the Ant (23min)
Inshallah Beijing (54min)
Ghadir dreams that at last someone will buy her some running shoes. Nader trains while hoping that a missile doesn't land on him. Zakia hasn't got a permit from the military authorities to get to the swimming pool. They are athletes belonging to the Palestinian team who leave Jericho in July 2008 to take part in the Beijing Olympic games. Inshallah, God willing. Because a lot of difficulties must be overcome before reaching China.
First and foremost, the difficulty in competing for a country that doesn't exist yet Palestine and that doesn't have the means to support its athletes. It won't be easy to adapt because the war is not just at home: the athletes carry it inside them. Getting to Beijing is already a victory.
Mazen and the Ant (23min)
On the way to school one day, Mazen is distracted by the plight of an ant on the side of the road and decides to help the insect carry a grain of sand. Because of this, Mazen is late to school and he stands up for his choice to help the even the smallest of creatures.
