MAYOR is a real-life political saga following Musa Hadid, the Christian mayor of Ramallah, during his second term in office. His immediate goals: repave the sidewalks, attract more tourism, and plan the city's Christmas celebrations. His ultimate mission: to end the occupation of Palestine. Rich with detailed observation and a surprising amount of humor, MAYOR offers a portrait of dignity amidst the madness and absurdity of endless occupation while posing a question: how do you run a city when you don't have a country?

“Thrilling. The best new film about Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a dark comedy about Ramallah’s mayor. David Osit”s documentary blends black comedy and unnerving suspense for a fascinating look at life under occupation.” — IndieWire “A gripping portrait of Ramallah’s beloved mayor, whose job consists of the mundane tasks of running a local government mixed with the extraordinary circumstances of navigating the repercussions of a geopolitical conflict. A sincere tale of a public servant who’s seeking to lead in a world that’s stacked against him.” — Vox
