Our weekly documentary film curated by the editorial team at 21WIRE.
The Settlers cracks open the hidden world of Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank: their daily lives, their worldviews, and their extremist Zionist ideology and ethno-supremacy, and desire to ethnically cleanse the native Palestinian population. With uninhibited access, the film captures the casual zealotry, racism, and untroubled certainty of many settlers in this contentious and controversial space. The existence and development of Israeli settlements in the West Bank is complex and elusive, and increasingly wild and tragic. Along with personal profiles, Dotan unpacks the history of the settlements, laying out the facts with extraordinary care and lucidity, to allow us to see the progression of actions and reactions that have led to the current volatile situation.
