During a whole year, Terje hung outside Cordoba girl school in Hebron, filming and documenting human rights violations caused by israeli soldiers and settlers against the young Palestinian girls attending this school and their families living close by. The area is called Tel Rumeida. Terje himself had to protect himself on many occasions from the stones flying in his direction while accompanying the girls to and from school. On a normal school day, the girls, which were between 7 and 16 years old, had to past through one or two israeli checkpoints, have their schoolbags searched and pass in front of an israeli settlement to reach their school. if they were lucky they managed to reach the school without any incidents. Most of the time though they had to run past the settlement to avoid the stones, tomatoes and rotten eggs that are thrown at them by israeli settler kids.
