The most prevalent images of Palestine in the news are those of death and destruction. Indeed, the Israeli occupation has wreaked havoc on the lives and communities of the Palestinian people. Depictions of this devastation help people internationally to understand the structural and physical violence that Palestinians face daily. However, when the only images we see of Palestine are of death and destruction, other experiences of Palestinian life get lost, creating a single story. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (2009) says that “[t]he single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story.” What we lose when death and destruction are the single story of Palestine is the day-to-day joys of living, loving, and existing there—the very reasons for which Palestinians have continued to struggle to remain on their ancestral lands. Hay Betl7em explores the beauty, resilience, and dignity of Palestinian life and Palestinian resilience by focusing on the minutiae of everyday life, beginning with a single town—Bethlehem. Through our work, we strive to depict Palestine in all its beauty, vitality, and diversity, featuring the people, sights, sounds, and social textures that make Bethlehem feel like "home" to so many, despite the hardships of living under occupation. To this end, Hay Betl7em creates "episodes" highlighting a Bethlehem-based figure, group, place, project, moment, or movement. Each episode is developed alongside the film subjects, who contribute as co-producers, with their approval at every stage of filmmaking. The goal of the docuseries is not to feature “charismatic leaders” or “success stories,” but to focus on everyday people who contribute to Bethlehem through their labor, passion, talent, creativity, and personality. We build from the concept that the “ordinary is extraordinary” and that “personal stories are emancipatory.” We believe that when we collectivize the individual stories of everyday people, projects, and activities that make up Palestinian community life, we reveal a type of sumud (steadfastness) that often flies under the radar of typical news media and documentary films, but that is critical to (re)building life daily in Palestine. Hay Betl7em does the work of (re)naming on a few different levels. Most importantly, it allows the film participants to"(re)name" the depiction of their experience by their involvement and direction of its visual representation. With support from EHCN, Hay Betl7em finalized 6 short films and created a web archive to house the expanding collection. The short films were exhibited via the “To Be Named” online exhibit in Palestine and may be exhibited elsewhere as the To Be Named exhibition continues to grow and travel.
