Coyotes

A Palestinian surgeon drives home after a long night shift, but little does she know that a commute through a desolate West Bank road will change her forever.

Having received its World Premiere at 82nd Biennale Venice Film Festival 2025, this vital short film starring Maria Zreik and Ali Suliman went on to win the award for Best Short Film at the 2025 BFI London Film Festival.

Ana Dammi Falastini (My Blood is Palestinian)

A Zeytoun Productions short film delivering a powerful statement about the intersection of personal struggle and political conflict.

By delving into the life of a Palestinian in the UK, separated from a culture and a way of life, this film captures the power of the human spirit in the face of adversity, offering hope, challenging narratives, and inspiring solidarity.

The film aims to promote a greater understanding of the Palestinian cause and rally support for justice and human rights.
