Overview

Coffee Pot is a short drama centred on Jomu'a, a Palestinian man living in a refugee camp who earns his living selling coffee every morning at the camp's entrance. His routine is simple and humble, but when he seeks additional work to supplement his income, the only job available to him is the demolition of a house. The film uses this quiet irony to speak to the broader condition of Palestinians in refugee camps — lives caught between necessity and dignity, survival and loss. Through Jomu'a's story, Coffee Pot offers an understated but affecting portrait of resilience and the daily moral negotiations forced upon those living on the margins.
