Plot Synopsis

Wall explores the physical and psychological dimensions of the controversial barrier being built to divide Israel and the Palestinian territories. Acclaimed documentary filmmaker, Simone Bitton, travels along the new construction of this long barrier, interviewing both Israelis and Palestinians who live and work beside the wall. The film effectively visualises the meaning of an impermeable barrier to the local communities while the interviews produce a contemporary and poignant account of the conflict. Wall, winner of numerous prestigious awards, is a contemplative journey into the politics of everyday lives in Israel and Palestine, alongside the extended wall of separation.
