    Well Done!

    This Film is very well made and offers good insight into the topic from several angles. It manages to both elevate and humanise israelies and palestinians at the same time in an intelligent manner.

    It shines both a light on the difficulties, pressures and sacrifices that come with resistance to established norms, and also puts them in the appropriate context without being sensationalist.

    The discussions among the israeli familiy are fascinating. I wish there were a little more of that, although the film is very well paced and every scene seems well chosen to me.

    Very much worth a watch even if, like me, you think you've seen everything on the topic.
