The Israeli
Wall in Palestinian Lands
Andrew Courtney
and Emily Perry
This film
was made during a time in Palestine when
the "Wall" that separates Palestinians
from each other and from Israelis was one
quarter completed. The film offers the viewer
a perspective from seven diverse and ordinary
Palestinians whose lives are directly affected
by the wall.
You will
meet a businessman from Abu Dis, a neighborhood
of East Jerusalem, a young mother from Dheishe
Refugee Camp near Bethlehem, a music student
from Ramallah, a community center director
from Jerusalem's Old City, a farmer from
the northern Qalqilya district, the director
of the Stop the Wall campaign and finally,
a member of the African-Palestinian community.
Viewers will
witness the effects of the Apartheid Wall
on the Palestinian people, and come out
with the inescapable conclusion that this
wall is another tool in Israel's ethnic
cleansing efforts against the Palestinian
population.
