Palestinians and Israeli's who support them try and fend off Israeli settlers who set up ouposts around Palestinian settlements and then try to harrass them into leaving.
Between this film and the recent film NAZA, which would be a good companion piece, the image is Israel is taking a brusing. This is to be expected since the behavior and low level violence inflicted on the people who have settled the land for centuries is shocking. None of the Israeli settlers come off looking good and one has to wonder why they are shocked at not being seen in a good light by the world's media.
Quite honestly this is a painful film to watch. In some ways its a tougher watch than NAZA because we are watching the crimes being committed and not just hearing about them.You can not help but bleed for the Palestinians who haven't done anything. That they remain under control and don't lash out at the wrongs being committed against them speaks volumes.
This film is stunner and one that will break your heart.
