    • Trivia
      The first scene was filmed at the Checkpoint 300 in Bethlehem. The checkpoint is where thousands of Palestinian workers queue from as early as 3am to cross into Israel for work.
    • Goofs
      The actors who play Israeli soldiers are Palestinian, and have a noticeably heavy Arabic Palestinian accent.

    Its good to finally shows like this on Netflix
    Most of the series that talks about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict are biased to Israel, but this film shows a part of the humiliation and suffering Palestinian face every day at Israeli checkpoints. Looking forward more like this in the future.
