Description
Filmmaker Simone Bitton documents the construction of the massive separation barrier that is destroying one of the most historically significant landscapes in the world.
Bitton utilises her shared Jewish-Arab identity to talk impartially to people on both sides, blurring the lines of hatred in this troubled region. Compelling and thought-provoking, The Wall offers a last glimpse of the beauty of this land and the humanity of its inhabitants as they disappear behind a shield of iron and concrete.
‘Bitton lovingly turns her camera on landscapes which one Palestinian describes as ‘the Garden of Eden’ and sorrowfully documents the systematic destruction of this lyrical setting’ Dan Fainaru, Screen International.
