Maysaloun Hamoud

Maysaloun Hamoud’s remarkable debut feature IN BETWEEN follows three strong and independent-minded Palestinian women who share an apartment in Tel Aviv. Away from the constraints of their families and tradition, they find themselves “in between” the free and unfettered lives they are aspiring to lead and the restrictions still imposed on them by society.

What is most intriguing about “In Between” is how each woman is allowed to make mistakes and learn from them without any judgment on Hamoud’s part

the three-stranded story “In Between” braids together might look a bit tidy and schematic, but it makes its points with an impressive mixture of clarity and nuance. The central performances are all terrific.
