I've recommended that movie to all my friends.. They're invariably shocked at the details...

Americans (among others) are susceptible to propaganda & Israel has been able to spew its propaganda for a VERY long time while labeling Palestinians as uncultured liars if not terrorists.

Hi, HulitC. I'd like to add to that recommendation. 'Omar' is one of the BEST and most EFFECTIVE movies about Palestine/Israel. Essential viewing, and newcomers can especially appreciate it as its done as a dark romance under occupation. The same director did 'Paradise Now' and 'Huda's Salon' - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuvO65EPWFo

There are many excellent documentaries, but '5 Broken Cameras' will be understood by all parents except the most self-righteously bloodthirsty - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_93nOqwmhU
