  Slingshot Hip Hop
  This exhilarating documentary from the emerging Palestinian Hip Hop scene is heartbreaking, humorous,
  and unlike anything else you've seen
on contemporary life in Palestine and Israel.  
  Saturated with the style and sound of Palestine's first rappers, the film brings us close to its young
  protagonists as they make history armed with only their voices.
