Jabali

"There was a time where I could flee from my home' windows and stairs to Jabal Webdeh's Jasmin bushes. I would disappear for hours exploring the people on my street. My street was like a wonderland with Um Rizq the healer, Abu Tallal the guardian, Abu Nasser the socialist liberal, Abu Nadim the great scientist and pharmacist, endless names and endless personas..and I climbed trees to hide from their eye sight .. and observe the stories of my neighborhood "

A biographical journey unfolds where Samar Dudin writes about her neighborhood in Jabal Weibdeh in Amman disclosing the diversity of the community that shaped the city in the early 70ies.

Jabali is Samar's dream project.
