Rana Abu Fraihah height - How tall is Rana Abu Fraihah?

When she was 5, her family moved to the neighboring Jewish city of Omer, becoming one of the first two Bedouin families there (as of 2019, there are ten). According to Abu Fraiha, both her parents were revolutionary thinkers, and given that their home town had no kindergartens or day care options, the move was a radical solution. Omer was entirely Jewish, mostly Ashkenazi, and very nationalistic. Growing up there was difficult for her. She has said about it: "Today I understand how powerful this duality is. It is actually being able to see on the outside everything that is considered 'normal' and 'right', and at home what is supposed to be avoided. For years I distanced myself from the Arab, the Bedouin, the Palestinian identity. I did not want to speak the language, I was afraid to get near it. Thank God (and especially my film) that I'm not in that place today."

The film came out three years after the Rudaina's death. It premiered at the Jerusalem International Film Festival in 2017, where it won the Van Lir Award for best directing. It was then released in cinematheques throughout the country, and was also screened in various venues in the periphery – in Arab and Bedouin communities, and aroused widespread public discourse. The film later won a series of awards, among them the Best Documentary Award at the Berlin Jewish Film Festival, the Shulamit Aloni Prize for Human Rights, and the Ophir Award for Best Documentary.
