Artist's Comments

"The iconic photograph of Leila Khaled, the picture which made her the symbol of Palestinian resistance and female power, is extraordinary in many ways: the gun held in fragile hands, the shiny hair wrapped in a keffiah , the delicate Audrey Hepburn face refusing to meet your eye."
(The Guardian - 26 January 2001)

"No one woman represents the Palestinian cause quite as dramatically as the freedom fighter, turned political activist Leila Khaled. Al Shindagah profiles the life of this remarkable woman and her ongoing struggle to attain justice for her countrymen."
(Al Shindagah - July 2001)

Latuff, you've got the great opportunity to know one of the most important activists of last century. It's great she continues struggling for the freedom of Palestine.
