If you look for them, you can find hero’s everywhere, in ordinary people. - Liana Badr

My project is to rewrite the palestinian history through the eyes of women.

I’m interested in finding the relation between war and the human being. The beauty of the small pleasures in life, subtle things.

(about Fadwa Tuqan) one of the most important poets of Palestine. She wrote a book that is like the bible of the palestinian feminist movement. When she was 12 years old a boy threw flowers on her. Her brother saw it, and it was a big crisis for her family. They told her ”You will stay in the house until you die.” Her brother Ibrahim Toquan was one of the best poets in Palestine at the time. He didn’t let her out of the house, but he taught her to write. After 20 years of house arrest she left the house. She was a rebel, and she established the poetry of love and loneliness in Palestine.
