Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In the earlier 2000's, Israel decided to build a security barrier inside the occupied Palestinian territory. The project would make the Budrus town of 1,500 residents lose 300 acres of land that belonged to the population for many generations; 3,000 sacred olive trees; divide the cemetery; and be located close to the school. Fatah leader Ayed Morrar organizes a non-violent resistance against the wall, and his teenage daughter Iltezam Morrar joins women in the movement. Hamah and other political Palestinian groups also join the manifestation. Soon Jews youngsters join the resistance when they learn what is happening with the Palestinians, and last but not the least, international press arrives at Budrus to cover the resistance and the abuses of the Israeli soldiers. Ten months later, Israel changes the route of the barrier affecting the minimum of Budrus. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil |
