loved the film. its perfectly framed shots, impeccably choreographed scenes, spare dialogue and quiet moments of brilliance r like a visual poem. by creating physical, mental and emotional space around his narrative, elia suleiman imbues his palestinian characters with elegance and dignity. the film expresses his desire for order in an environment which is hardly bearable let alone comprehensible. the absurdity of excessive force or widespread propaganda, the humiliation of occupation and the violent dance between israeli soldiers and palestinian resistance are all visually articulated. certain images/scenes r indelible, many from 1948. what better statement of resistance or wish for peace and co-existence than suleiman pole vaulting effortlessly over the separation wall? beautiful. 5 out of 5 for me.
