Little Red Riding Hudud features the teenage Palestinian girl and activist, Ahed Tamimi, as 'Red Cap' ('Little Red Cap' is the title of the original Grimm's tale.)
Little Red Riding Hood, as most British children know it, is a tale of deception or 'grooming.'
In this pot Tamimi is being groomed by Hamas not for a leadership role but for martyrdom. She is seen in the woods with cartoon forest animals taken from Hamas TV's children's programmes which are depicted as exhorting the child-viewers to become martyrs. Inside the pot, the wolf/grandma is wearing a bright green Hamas head band.
Hudud is an arabic word meaning boundary or sacred boundary. To cross, or transgress, brings trouble. Teenage girls in particular are urged not to transgress the domestic boundary, for fear of the 'wolves' (men) that lurk beyond it.
