Academy Award winner for Best Documentary Feature
A collective of Palestinian and Israeli activists/filmmakers chronicle the Israeli military’s incremental expulsion of the West Bank community of Masafer Yatta—home to 20 ancient Palestinian villages—in this tightly focused, urgent documentary.
Over a period of five years (2019–23), Masafer Yatta resident and Palestinian journalist Basel Adra shot video of home, school, water well, and road demolitions (legalized by the area’s conversion to an IDF training zone) and their consequent protests by displaced residents.
Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham—free to move about while Adra’s movements are constricted—takes this nonviolent fight to a wider platform. The two form a complicated friendship and hopeful partnership in their efforts to resist a government-sanctioned mass eviction.
