  • Summary: This documentary is a cinematic meditation on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in which the filmmaker blurs the lines of hatred by asserting her double identity as Jew and Arab. (Lifesize Entertainment)

  1. The interviews Bitton conducts, almost all with Arabs and Jews who share her despair, are less meaningful than what she captures in silence: the sight of farmers separated from their farmland, everyday people thwarted in their dailiness, and children playing next to what looks like prison walls.

    Its opponents, Arab and Israeli alike, the "wall" is a dispiriting symbol of apartheid and defeat.

    Bitton is Frederick Wiseman-obsessive about the practical details that make this horrific arrangement work, but she's also an unabashed polemicist.

    Interesting but a bit monotonous after 45 minutes. It would have been more effective as a short documentary. It still has a powerful statement to make. Not a great documentary, but it is good. Expand
