Movies & TV - From the myths of Samson and Massada, the younger Israeli generations learn that death is preferable to domination. In 2004, as the second Intifada was raging, the Palestinians were constantly humiliated by the Israeli army - a peasant was kept from plowing his field, children were stranded at a checkpoint for hours, an old woman couldn't even go back home... Exhausted, these people voiced their anger and despair - just as the Hebrews did with the Romans or Samson with the Philistines.

Israeli filmmaker Avi Mograbi still believes in the power of dialogue, with besieged Palestinians and with the omnipresent Israeli army officials.
