The Jerusalem Show,
Outside the Gates of Heaven
The Jerusalem Show (‘Ala Abwab Al Janna) borrows its English title from the vivacious and atypical formats of the Saturday Night Live show and the Muppet Show, whereas its Arabic title ‘Ala Abwab Al Janna (Outside the Gates of Heaven) references the sacramental veneration that is bestowed on Jerusalem. A similar ludicrous dichotomy is ostensible to Jerusalem’s inhabitants (including us at Al-Ma’mal Foundation).

(0.1) Henrik Placht
Apology
Apology (2008): On 13 February 2008, the Australian nation finally apologized to the indigenous people of Australia for the tragic way they were treated throughout the generations. The same day that the apology was issued, Placht was invited to participate in "The Jerusalem Show" and decided to incorporate it into his piece. For Placht, the Australian case was clearly related to the historical and contemporary oppression of Palestinians in Jerusalem. Throughout history, European colonial powers, western interventions, and other regimes have repeatedly oppressed and killed people around the world, often without regret or apology. This is an apology.
