Palestinian farmer Emad Burnat bought his first camera to film his newborn son. Soon his vision expanded to document turmoil in his village as Israeli troops arrived to bulldoze olive groves and build a wall cutting off 60% of the villagers’ farmland. Five cameras were all smashed as he filmed the destructive actions of both soldiers and Israeli settlers. The village, however, achieves a legal victory, while his son follows him about projecting an image of innocence and hope. In Hebrew and Arabic with English subtitles. Contains explicit content, including violence.
