With extraordinary access, award-winning Israeli filmmaker Shimon Dotan (Hot House) traces the history of Israeli settlements in the West Bank since Israel’s decisive victory in the 1967 Six-Day War. While government leaders and the Israeli public initially saw the military victory as an opportunity for a negotiated peace, Jewish religious zealots saw it as a calling from God to redeem the Biblical land of Israel. Much like the Occupation itself, the extremes of the settlement phenomenon have received extensive coverage in the media. But in this film, Dotan masterfully opens up a space in the middle, offering unprecedented access to pioneers of the movement and a diverse range of modern-day settlers, religious and secular alike. The result is a comprehensive, provocative exploration of the controversial communities that continue to influence the sociopolitical destinies of Israel and Palestine.
