Flower Seller
Baya'a el ward
Flower seller Abu el Ward struggles to eke out a living selling flowers in a refugee camp in Jenin. No one cares much for his flowers in a place where there’s little cause for celebration. A fast-paced thriller built around a Palestinian collaborator and notions of desperation and betrayal.
