With Jewish, Christian and Muslim inhabitants, Jaffa’s ‘Ajami’ neighbourhood is a melting pot of cultures, and provides the backdrop for this intense, powerful crime drama.
‘Ajami’ tells the story of a young Israeli soldier fighting a vendetta against his family, a Palestinian refugee working illegally to fund life-saving surgery, a Jewish detective searching for his missing brother, and a wealthy Palestinian planning a future with his Jewish girlfriend. However, when enemies live as neighbours – and their worlds collide - the consequences are devastating.
