Parkour on the Rubble
The dreams of these young people were to play parkour. Theirs is a dream of world-class buildings, but a decade of war was enough to destroy the city in which they live almost completely. In a scene, young teens play parkour in secret amid the war-torn landscape. The Islamic organizations in their city pressured them to abandon parkour, saying that they were imitating the infidels, which prompted them to perform it clandestinely.
