Contents/Summary
- Summary
- An analogy between the Jewish mythologies of the Zealots at Masada and Samson and the ordeal of contemporary Palestinians. The director intertwines footage of himself discussing politics (over the phone) with a depressed, cynical Palestinian friend in the occupied territories, footage of Israelis giving tours to youth groups and celebrating the aforementioned myths, and footage of Palestinians dealing with the indignities of checkpoints and the capricious enforcement of seemingly arbitrary rules and regulations by Israeli soldiers.
