Description: Ashtar theatre, partner of the RLS Regional Office in Palestine and Jordan, has produced variable monologues about Gaza, under continuous siege and many wars, and have had toured those monologues around the world, for years. Valuing this experience, and desiring to give it a wider outreach, our office decided to document it in a film called “We are Here” Directed by Sabrina Dittus. The documentary traces the experience in Gaza, Ramallah and Hannover, nevertheless, sheds the light on the thoughts, aspirations, fears and dreams of the Gazan youth who have written and acted, once possible, their monologues, on stage. The film came out in 55 minutes, and was interpreted into English and German.
