Filmscreening: A Stone's Throw Away, Line Halvorsen,
2003
followed by a discussion with some of
the main actors in the film
In "A Stone's
Throw Away" we meet three 13 year old boys from Deheishe refugee camp outside
Bethlehem, who grew up under Israeli occupation. The film follows the children
through their daily lives in a world where the abnormal has become normal. The
story is told from the children's point of view and provides an intimate insight
into the children's thoughts and lives, raising questions about how children are
influenced by the conditions in which they live.
