These 7 minutes come from a feature length film documenting the rebuilding of a demolished house in The West Bank. This short version takes the basic argument of the longer film - that the issue in Palestine isn't only territory, but rather who controls it. It questions whether the Palestinians will get a real and a viable state or one controlled almost entirely by Israel.
This short piece is intended to spark an interest in the themes it touches on & develope a curosity to know more.
