Jerusalem, the capital of Palestine, has important prayer sites for Muslims, Christians, and Jews. In this clip, 15 year-old Rania Roomi, talks about dreams of one day being able to visit Jerusalem.

  1. Thank you for telling this story, Ramia. A lot of people still don’t understand what it means to have West Bank or Gazan ID, so your work is extremely informative and important. Keep going!!

  2. This is really good, Rania. Your dream was beautifully expressed. Inshalla, one day it will come true. All the information was really interesting and I love the way you blended the music with the dialogue – a truly professional piece of work. Well done!
