A Borrowed Identity (Arabic: العرب الراقصون; Hebrew: זהות שאולה) is a 2014 Israeli drama film directed by Eran Riklis.

As part of his school-mandated community service, he meets Yonatan, who suffers from muscular dystrophy, and his mother Edna.

However, the beginning of the IDF's Operation Protective Edge and the tense security situation at the time delayed the film's completion by an additional four months.

Its title was also slightly changed, with the addition of a subtitle, "A Borrowed Identity", to avoid provocations.

Back in school, Eyad and Naomi fall in love and meet up constantly, however, things begin to get complicated.

The decision angers Eyad's father and he is no longer welcome at home, so he moves to a flat in East Jerusalem and begins to seek work as a waiter.

Naomi serves in the IDF and tells Eyad that she is sick of lying and chooses to break things off.
