SYNOPSIS

An intimate portrait of the day-to-day life of a dynamic popular resistance leader from Palestine who left her full-time job with the UN to return to her home village of al-Walaja and fight for its survival. Shot on location over a four-year-period, 'Sheerin of al-Walaja' provides a refreshingly candid insight into just what it is that motivates someone to put their life on hold in favour of becoming a full-time activist.
