I thought this was an excellent documentary


I don't think the low score of 6.6 on imdb should put anyone off from watching this. The style of the doc is very slow and labouring, but in a good way, as the documentary is about the wall, the day-to-day life of the average citizen around the wall, and also about the actual making of a documentary there. Hence why many scenes you hear people talking to the film crew and vice-versa. I thought the effect of this was very appealing and allowed for a subjective view into life around the wall for Isralies, Palestinians and film-makers themselves.

Anyone who wants to see a documentary about the wall and it's surrounding citizens, but one not done in a preachy way should definately give this film a go. I'd personally give it 8 or 9 out of 10.
