International, True-life

Between The River And The Sea


Palestinian-Israeli actor Yousef Sweid dives into the chaos of identity, truth, and family life in Between The River And The Sea. Raised as a Christian-Arab kid in Haifa, now raising two Jewish-Arab kids in Berlin, he unpacks his in-between-ness – where contradictions clash and slogans fail. With biting humour and raw honesty, Sweid weaves personal stories, political reflection, and absurd everyday moments into a sharp, unflinching solo performance. This is no neat narrative, but a plea for nuance, for listening, and for stories that rarely get told. Uncomfortable, unforgettable, unfiltered. Complex, touching and funny.
