Documentary Series
Outside My Window
Palestine
“Outside My Window” is based on three documentaries shot in Palestine, in the city of Ramallah and Hebron. They are framed in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and are about how Palestinian children and youth live and address challenges such as equality, inequality and political conflict.
The project is developed by the Danish production company and creative school Lommefilm and had the support of the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs (DANIDA), by Dar Danske Filminstitut, The Danish House in Palestine and the Chilean production company SomosHuemul.

"I am Taqi"
UN GOAL No. 16: "PEACE, JUSTICE AND STRONG INSTITUTIONS"
Synopsis:
For five years now, Taqi has been training his voice to podcast, and in order not to be the only one, he teaches others to do the same. Taqi has discovered that recording his voice to tell stories of peace and friendship can give hope and reassurance to the new generation in Hebron, plagued by the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
"I am Sarah"
UN GOAL Nº 4: “QUALITY EDUCATION”
Synopsis:
Sarah is 6 years old and lives with her family in the Al Am’ari refugee camp in Ramallah, Palestine, where political tension is a constant situation. Because of this, Sarah’s parents put her in a school outside of camp to have access to a better education and a peaceful environment.
"I am Malak"
UN GOAL No. 5: “GENDER EQUALITY”
Synopsis:
Malak has a deep passion for painting. He used to paint several hours a day and teach others how to draw a perfect face and body. But his vocation is not fully understood by his society and his family. Being a painter in Hebron, Palestine, goes against the role of conservative Muslim women.
