KALANDIA - a Checkpoint's story A film by Neta Efrony / Israel 2008
--
Current Affairs. 59 minutes. English, Arabic, Hebrew. English subtitles + narration. French subtitled version available.
Produced by Susan Lourenco
--
SYNOPSIS:
Over a span of six years, Filmmaker Neta Efrony documented an Israeli military Checkpoint - on the road between East Jerusalem and Ramallah - who grew and expanded into becoming a Terminal.
Kalandia's Checkpoint does not separate between Arabs and Jews; it separates between Palestinians and Palestinians. The film is an authentic and disturbing testimony to the daily struggle of Palestinians who wish to continue their routine lives, on their way to work, education, medical care or religious reasons.

PRESS REVIEW:
''Efrony's genius lies in actualizing the Chinese maxim equating one picture to a thousand words with especial clarity and poignancy. She allows the unimpeded eye of her camera to record the reality in front of it and from time to time the thoughts she shares with us seem to echo those very same thoughts in the minds of the viewers.'' Lynda Brayer

  • Thank you Neta Efrony and all the women of Machsom Watch. I used to travel through this checkpoint every week to go shopping and visit family, when it was a little road block, but now I can't, and it keeps me from visiting my daughter on the other side of the wall. I hope we live to see these walls and checkpoints torn down!

  • Many thanks for this video, I appreciate the great efforts
