Amreeka (2009)
Muna Farah, een Palestijnse alleenstaande moeder, heeft moeite om positief te blijven. De controleposten op de Westelijke Jordaanoever intimideren haar, ze vindt dat haar overbezorgde moeder teveel zeurt en haar mislukte huwelijk blijft haar achtervolgen. Alles verandert wanneer ze in een brief leest dat haar familie een U.S. green card heeft gekregen. Hoewel ze haar land eigenlijk niet wil verlaten, beseft ze dat dit misschien wel de enige mogelijkheid is om de toekomst van haar zoon Fadi veilig te stellen.
