The Shebabs of Yarmouk

Axel Salvatori-Sinz, Fransa- France, 2013, 77’, Renkli-Color


The Shebabs are a group of teenagers, who have known each other since they were
boys and girls. Now on the eve of adulthood, they are faced with tough choices –
between breaking free and sticking to the group, between revolt and a well-ordered
life. These are tough choices, especially from the perspective of Yarmouk, a Palestinian refugee camp in Syria.
