Calle 13 Video Filmed in Palestine

“THE ONLY WAY TO DEAL WITH AN UNFREE WORLD IS 

TO BECOME SO ABSOLUTELY FREE THAT YOUR VERY 
EXISTENCE IS AN ACT OF REBELLION.” – ALBERT CAMUS

Existence is Resistance

The film was produced by Calle 13 and filmed by Zapatero Filmes in the Palestinian cities of Bethlehem and Beit Sahour, Place of the Night Watch, a Palestinian village at the East of Bethlehem.

David Grossman - Israel

“The country’s borders have shifted so many times with each war that it’s like living all your life in a house with moving walls. Only by living in peace with our neighbors, the Palestinians, can Israel feel like home, without us feeling like occupiers, without feeling like foreigners.”

“Palestinians have the natural right to a state and a society, to a homeland, and I wish they could have a normal life without the burden of occupation. I cannot tolerate the thought that Israel intervenes in their lives, and it casts a shadow,” said Grossman, criticizing the Israeli government’s “on-going failure” to enter into negotiations with the Palestinians.

“Peace for Israel is essential to its future survival. Right now we do not have confidence in a future.”
