Summary
Kareem leads an aimless life between odd jobs and hanging out with his buddies in a crime-ridden Arab ghetto of the mixed city of Lyd. But a family tragedy brings him closer to his singer girlfriend Manar and motivates him to do something more with his life. When Kareem and his group finally get a chance to perform in a Tel Aviv hip-hop club, the star potential of the first Arab rapper is quickly noticed. Winner of the Panorama Audience Award for Fiction Film and nominated for the Amnesty International Film Prize at the **Berlin International Film Festival**. Winner of Best International Narrative Feature at the **Tribeca Film Festival**. *"[JUNCTION 48] demonstrates that no art is more political than that which depicts the lived experience of the oppressed with accuracy, empathy, and moral clarity." - Keith Watson, **Slant Magazine***
