Arab Labor

Arab labor deals with the Arab status In Israeli society, the controversy surrounding issues of identity and the sensitivities of both populations. Amjad is a 35-year-old Arab journalist, married to Bushara and father to Maya. In order to become the darling of the In-crowd, Amjad is willing to lie, flatter and conceal all of his Arab traits. Meanwhile, he vehemently represents the suffering of Arabs at any given forum. This excessive Israelization is a source of conflict between Amjad and his conservative parents. His wife mocks his ways and deeds, but shows restraint in order to preserve domestic peace. Amjad’s only ally is his friend Meir (an Israeli Jew).
