Mohammed, a teacher, lives with his family in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. When violence erupts near their house, Mohammed refuses to evacuate. Israeli soldiers occupy the residence’s top floor. Despite being given freedom to leave, Mohammed insists that his family stick together in their house.
Saverio Costanzo (My Brilliant Friend) made his fiction debut with this slow-burning gem that goes beyond the microcosm of the Gaza Strip and gets lost in everyday life. Winner of the Golden Leopard at Locarno in 2004, Private is a moving portrait of the Israeli occupation of a family’s home.
