Slingshot Hip Hop braids together the stories of young
Palestinians living in Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank as they discover
Hip Hop and employ it as a tool to surmount divisions imposed by occupation
and poverty. From internal checkpoints and Separation Walls to gender
norms and generational differences, this is the story of young people
crossing the borders that separate them.
