Storyline

The film We No Longer Prefer Mountains (2023) begins with an ascent of Mount Carmel upon which the Druze towns of Dalyet el Carmel and Isfiya are located, drawing the viewer into a world of geographic isolation and a locale shaped by coercion and control. Weaving together intimate engagements with members of the community in shared domestic spaces and outdoor environments, the film explores how the inner politics of the Druze have been reconfigured and reshaped as a result of the establishment of Israel in 1948; whilst opening up possibilities for imagining alternative futures.
