Acre Wall Jumpers | Donna Naor Hacohen, Firas Roby

DocAviv 2024

 

On the hot summer days in the old city of Acre, a tradition connects the generations – children and teens jump from the old city walls into the sea waters below, a test of courage on the path to masculine maturity. During the endless sweltering days friendships are forged around this defining tradition, everlasting as the ranks of youth are replenished from generation to generation. 

 

The film unveils a nostalgic and stirring world of friendships, dangers and displays of bravery – all anchored in the experience of youthful masculinity atop the ancient city walls. 

 

Director: Donna Naor Hacohen, Firas Roby
