Brilliantly crafted and thoughtful in its choice of narrators, images and stories, Where Olives Trees Weep pulls no punches - handling a complex, emotional, devastating situation ...and subjects undergoing unimaginable trauma with the care they deserve. At the same time, the film's unapologetic aim is to lay bare what is an undeniable truth, one that anyone who watches the film will be unable to reject. In the filmmakers' own words... "We expected to find the same complexity on the ground: a multifaceted scenario of shared responsibility and denial. Within a day or two, like anyone who has traveled to those parts, we found out that the big picture is surprisingly clear: a brutal settler colonial project imposing a very harsh form of apartheid and bent on ethnically cleansing an indigenous population by all available means." A must watch for both those intimately familiar with the history of Palestinian oppression as well as for those who aren't.
