Bonboné

A Beautiful piece and bold addition to a long line of Palestinian resilience and revolution through art and cinema..

It's unusual, but really fundamental, to see Palestinian stories represented on the screen. Bonboné does it with great direction and cinematography.

It's a funny story of a woman, who wants to get pregnant although her husband is in jail. So she finds a tricky way to make her wish come true.

May Palestine be free soon! This is such a powerful movie, makes you feel how miserably they want children at all cost! These stories are real, real people go through such trouble to live a normal life!

Bonbone delivers a hysterically poignant message. The portrayal of the protagonists as two adults who simply wish to start a family together contrasts starkly with traditional narratives revolving around conception. Rather than being at the mercy of their bodies and their reproductive systems to make a baby like most couples, the two are instead held captive by the militarised system of injustice which incarcerates and separates.
