A House in Jerusalem
After moving from the UK to Jerusalem, young Rebecca strikes up a mysterious and an unlikely friendship, in this poignant tale of loss and longing.
Director: Muayad Alayan
Overview
Young Rebecca, together with her father, relocates from the UK to Jerusalem seeking a fresh start following the tragic death of her mother. Their old family home in the Valley of the Ghosts becomes the setting for mysterious events and an unlikely friendship between Rebecca and Rasha, a young Palestinian girl only she can see. Is Rasha a figment of Rebecca’s imagination or is she connected to the home’s troubled history? As Rebecca delves deeper into the secrets of the house, she discovers Rasha’s true identity, and the shared loss that binds them.
A House in Jerusalem was made with the support of the BFI, awarding National Lottery funding.
