Faire le mur (lit. 'Make the wall', figuratively 'Sneak out') is a 2010 French comic book by Maximilien Le Roy. It is about the 22-year-old Palestinian Mahmoud Abu Srour who lives in the Aida Camp in the West Bank, where his family runs a small grocery store. He meets a French female student and agrees to accompany her to her sister in Israeli territory, for which he needs to cross the West Bank Wall.[1][2][3][4][5]

Le Roy visited Palestine in 2008 and 2009 and Faire le mur was one of three comic books about the Israeli–Palestinian conflict he published in 2009–2010.[6][7] In 2014, he tried to visit Israel for a comics festival, but was stopped at the airport, interrogated for four hours and told he was not allowed to enter the country for the next ten years.[8]
