Testament of Youth
Musrara, Jerusalem: the Naggar School of Photography, Media and New Music is situated on the border between the old city and the new, poverty and wealth, the Jewish and the Arab worlds. With Teen Spirit, recent graduates of the school interrogate another difficult border: that between childhood and adulthood. The result is a portrait of contemporary Israeli youth, illuminating stark contrasts between the tribalism of the social group and the isolation of the teenage bedroom, a desperation to conform and a desire to assert an individual identity.
