"A Hard Brick of Reality in the Face"
22 October 2009
Warning: Spoilers
This controversial film tries to show the heavy truth that both sides (Israeli & Palestinian) have to cope with and tries to put a face to it. I enjoyed watching this film as much as anyone could enjoy watching human suffering with a sprinkle of a protagonist trying to defy the poor odds via human will and tenacity.

One could interpret this film as using hyperbole in favor of the Palestinian plight and may cause resentment from the viewer. If this is so then I believe they can still enjoy the film as a fictional piece.

However one feels on the subject this film aptly underscores the agreeable fact that much change is needed by both sides to end the conflict in Middle East.
