A Palestinian woman

Andrew Courtney - Emiliy Perry 2006 docu 28 min.

This short documentary, filmed alongside the wall that Israel continues to
build in the West Bank, brings the viewer close to the conditions isolating
Palestinians within their communities. Terry Bulatta, mother, teacher and
community activist, shows the filmmakers how the 27 foot high wall
surrounds her neighborhood in East Jerusalem, separating it from the
adjacent neighborhood of Abu Dis and severing the human bonds linking these
communities. The camera joins her on a half hour drive from one side of the
wall to the other a trip that previously took only four minutes. We learn
of the terminals and checkpoints through which Palestinians must pass, of
the settlements, and of the land confiscations which Terry describes as
elements of an apartheid, system which makes settlers "masters of the
land".
