الغريب في القدس

A stranger in jerusalem

This project is a 2D animated short film I developed as a creative allegory inspired by real events. The story follows Zilo, an alien who fell in earth occupied Palestine.Through Zilo’s eyes, we explore themes of loss, resistance, and identity, subtly reflecting the experience of Palestinian families under occupation — particularly inspired by events in Jerusalem and Sheikh Jarrah.
