Elias Jubran is a music teacher and oud maker who has lived in Galilee since before it became part of Israel in 1948. Though his four children have grown up to live very different lives, they each share his love of music. Telling Strings examines the unique beauty of the oud and the enduring strength of Palestinian musical heritage. What is necessary so that a culture—suppressed by the Israeli State—may continue to develop itself?
