Living in the Shadow of Death

Bilal Yusef

With daily acts of gun violence and over 382 civilians killed since 2019 – life in Israel’s Arab communities is unbearable. The filmmaker, unable to provide his young family with a basic notion of security, embarks on a journey to understand the limited options he has left.
