  Welcome to Hebron. An occupied city in the West Bank with a population of 150 000 Palestinians where an Israeli settlement of 600 brings with it a military installation of 4 000 to defend the residents rights... When you see a Palestinian you throw a rock Filmed over three years Welcome to Hebron follows Leila a bright and opinionated Palestinian schoolgirl who refuses to be a victim. Although nothing more than a target for the Israeli settlers and soldiers Leila dreams of seeing things change studying in Egypt and some day bringing peace to Hebron. Defying Western stereotypes of Arab women Leila has her own clear ideas about freedom justice and what it means to live under occupation and isn''t afraid to express them. Featuring interviews with all involved Director Terj Carlsson is unafraid of getting up close and personal capturing the kind of confrontations that are routinely censored or hidden from news cameras but which characterize the struggles faced by those living in the Occupied Territories. Welcome to Hebron is a shocking look at the hidden world of those living every day under occupation a world we only see when the provocations lead to violence.
