Ciné Résistance | The Palestinian Cause: Checkpoint by Yoav Shamir

«Checkpoint» by Yoav Shamir (92min) Checkpoint is a cinema verité documentary, which captures the enforced encounters between Israeli soldiers and Palestinians at military checkpoints throughout the West Bank. Around 2.7million Palestinians live there under Israeli occupation. When they want to move from one village or city to another, to visit relatives or doctors, or to go to work, they have to pass through Israeli checkpoints. From 2001 to 2003, director Yoav Shamir has filmed and created an incredibly honest report of various occurrences at these checkpoints. https://www.yoavshamirfilms.com/checkpoint
