Tomorrow's Land

Andrea Paco Mariani, Nicola Zambelli 2011 84 min.

At-Tuwani is a small Palestinian farmers village set among the arid hills
south-east of Hebron, in Area C of the West Bank, under complete Israeli
administrative and military control. The village, which since 1999 is
permanently threatened with evacuation, is repeatedly subjected to the
attacks carried out by the settlers from the close Israeli outpost of Havat
Ma'on and settlement of Ma'on.
To answer to this well established system of injustice, ten years ago a
Popular Resistance Committee was born in the area, as a direct expression
of the local farmers revolt and at the same time as an effective instrument
to destabilize the mechanism of control and repression realized by the
Israeli occupation.
With the support of many Israeli activists and international peace groups,
the movement is growing and taking root in the area as a possible way to
build and imagine a different future.
The inhabitants of At-Tuwani live in a very particular context. From a
certain point of view, their situation symmetrically reflects the
difficulties that the Palestinian people face collectively in the entire
West Bank: military occupation, the absence of legal protection on the
basis of the rights of citizenship, the continuously expanding Israeli
settlements and the resulting tensions.
To answer to injustices the local community founded the non-violent Popular
Resistance Committee which with the support of peace activists is trying to
destabilize the mechanism of control and repression.
