These Singing Palestinian Kids Will Move You to Tears

  Produced by World Vision Organization and Al-Kamandjati Association and directed by Palestinian filmmaker May Odeh of Odeh Films, this touching film depicts children throughout Jenin singing about their hopes, dreams and expectations for the future. Al-Kamandjati Association was founded in 2002 by Palestinian violinist Ramzi Aburedwan, with the aim of supporting the education and schooling of Palestinian children through music. The association aims to make music more accessible to them, especially those living in refugee camps, allowing them to transcend some of the daily hardships they face due to the occupation. Filled with heartwarming sentiments of innocence and a deep desire to be normal children who can play, study and learn in peace, this short video definitely brought us to tears.
