About JWRH

If houses and streets, neighbourhoods and cities could tell us their stories, what would these be? The present dominates our sense of space, but the past is always enduring under the surface, even when it has been socially, politically and economically concealed.

Jerusalem, We Are Here is an interactive documentary that digitally brings Palestinians back to the Jerusalem neighbourhoods from which they were expelled in 1948. Focusing primarily on the neighbourhood of Katamon, Palestinian participants and their descendants probed their families’ past, and engaged with the painful present.
