First published 2009
Vittorio Arrigoni, an Italian activist, embeds himself in Gaza to witness the daily struggle of Palestinians under Israeli occupation. Navigating checkpoints and airstrikes, he documents the resilience of a people fighting for survival, their dreams of freedom overshadowed by the ever-present threat of violence. Through Arrigoni's eyes, we see the human toll of the conflict - the loss, the hardship, but also the unwavering spirit that refuses to be broken.
