MY NEIGHBOURHOOD
The documentary “My Neighbourhood” tells the
story of a young Palestinian boy who loses his
home in East Jerusalem to Israeli settlers. But he
fights back by joining a community-led nonviolent
struggle with the support of thousands of Israeli
activists. The film, very much in the same vein as
the PUMA Impact Award winner “Budrus”, has been
praised by critics and scooped many awards since
opening at the Tribeca Film Festival last year. Most
recently it bagged the Peabody Award, one of the
most prestigious TV prizes in the United States.

“William and the Windmill” is Ben Nabors’ film
about a 14-year-old Malawian who taught himself
to build a windmill to power his family’s property
using bottle tops and bicycle parts. It goes beyond
the incredible story of William Kamkwamba, the
amateur inventor, to explore the
challenges that came next amid the
high-profile attention that radically
changed the young boys life. The
film, which was supported by a PUMA
Catalyst Award, premiered at the
South by Southwest (SXSW) Film
Festival in Texas, scooping the Grand
Jury Award for Documentary Feature,
one of the festival’s top two honours.
