Bonboné

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.

Bonbone is by far one of the best short films I have watched. A beautifully shot tribute to Palestinian resistance and an important account of the situation in Palestine.

I really got caught by the story which I found original, entertaining and informative - I did not know such thing was happening. Cherry on the top, the film is served by a catchy music, perfectly suiting the tone of the film. Worth to watch and to ear!

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

Just a few films in the history of cinema can show a human, love and powerfull story. This is one of them! With a brilliant direction of Rakan Mayasi, and through and astute, unexpected and revealing story, this shortfilm let us Breathless! Must see!
