Summaries

A Jerusalem couple set off on a journey. Against a backdrop of beauty, belief and great violence, they begin a film of their lives.

Tape is a story that takes place amidst a conflict, a film centred on stories of the youth of Jerusalem. The film focuses specifically on the lives of Ian, Stephanie, Daniel, Adylia and Aaron. They are a group of friends, both Palestinian and Israeli, who struggle to live amongst one another in a country that has been torn apart by politics, religion and conflicting histories. We feel that, at a time where tensions are rising more than they ever have before in Jerusalem, where stereotypes are all too common and false generalisations are far too often made - a film that actually gives voice to a diverse culture of people that are completely misrepresented in media, as well as tells a story through those people - is an incredibly important and current message to convey.
