They are part of an 'orchestra' but they cannot play in their homeland. They are the young musicians of the Palestine Youth Orchestra. "We can only meet all together rarely," explains Zeina Khoury (22 years old, from Jerusalem), "but this is our way of resisting. A peaceful way, that helps the world see Palestine with different eyes". Culture against violence. In the State of Israel, where officially there is no war but in reality there is no peace either, for the 75 members of the ensemble, playing means carrying forward a message, "that of resisting, despite everything" in the name of art
