This film, directed by Yoav Shamir, is a must-see in order to understand what Palestinians encounter in Israeli checkpoints in the West Bank.

Imagine a large neighbourhood, an area, a nation in which you have to obtain the consent of the officer of another country to take your child to hospital or to go to your university, promising to return in two hours.

Imagine waiting under snow or rain for hours, sometimes enduring insults, just to move forward one metre.

Imagine being forced to leave your children behind.
