 "Slingshot Hip Hop" braids together the stories of young Palestinians
living in the West Bank, Gaza and inside Israel as they discover Hip Hop and
employ it as a tool to surmount divisions imposed by occupation and poverty.
>From internal checkpoints and Separation Walls to gender norms and
generational differences, this is the story of young people crossing the
borders that separate them. (http://slingshothiphop.com)
