What is left for Palestinian farmers who learn that in 24 hours the Israeli army will confiscate their lands for the construction of a 'security wall'? What do people do when their very survival is threatened by one of the world's most powerful armies? This is the story of a village's confusion, desperation, and resistance, the daily victories and wrenching defeats. Filmed at times with a hidden camera and at times under extreme duress, this film is a chronicle of a people and their ancient life-giving orchards, ever threatened by destruction.


 
 
Nida Sinnokrot

Nida Sinnokrot is a Palestinian-American artist and filmmaker. Born in 1972 in the USA and raised in Algeria, Nida's films, installations, and sculptures often explore the complex political realities of Diaspora through a phenomenological approach. After completing his undergraduate studies in Radio, Television, and Film at the University of Texas at Austin, Nida moved to New York where he received an MFA in Film and Video from Bard College. Nida attended the Whitney Museum of American Art Independent Study Program in 2001, is a 2002 Rockefeller Media Fellow, and was recently awarded a Paul Robeson media grant.
