Nine Days in Wahat al-Sa... This film documents nine days of meetings between eight Palestinians and eight Israelis in 2003 in the Israeli-Palestinian village of Wahat al-Salam/Neve Shalom, recording the participants’ discussions and the development of their awareness of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict as well as their roles in it. The participants, all in their 20s and 30s, begin to analyse their own identities through their interactions with each other. It explores majority-minority relations and asymmetrical structures. The film highlights the network of conditions that underlie such discussions of power through its use of linear chronology, permanent observers, and contained space.

Elena In 1937, tens of thousands of Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent were exterminated by the Dominican army, on the basis of anti-black racism. Fast-forward to 2013, the Dominican Republic's Supreme Court stripped the citizenship of anyone with Haitian parents, retroactive to 1929, rendering more than 200,000 people stateless. Elena, the young protagonist of the film, and her family stand to lose their legal residency in the Dominican Republic if they don't manage to get their documents in time. Negotiating a mountain of opaque bureaucratic processes and a racist, hostile society around, Elena becomes the face of the struggle to remain in a country built on the labor of her father and forefathers.
