For many Palestinians, Arabian horses are a living symbol of their culture’s resilience; as one breeder says, they are “art mixed with history.” In this documentary, a young Palestinian breeder named Abdel Naser Musleh and his family navigate the difficulties of raising these delicate animals in the West Bank—where access to vets and training facilities always seem to be a checkpoint away. Directed, filmed, and edited by Elise Coker.

This leads to hunters using DIY guns of varying quality, often sorely lacking in safety. Guns made in factories are strictly banned. Indigenous hunter Talum Suqluman was charged in 2013 with using an illegal gun to hunt protected animals. In 2021, his case went before Taiwan’s highest court in an attempt to resolve the conflict between the right of Indigenous peoples to practice their hunting culture, and Taiwan’s near-total ban on civilian firearms. Many Indigenous activists rallied around Talum’s case, surfacing centuries-old tensions between the Han Chinese majority and Indigenous communities of the island. Directed and filmed by Elise Coker.
