Beginning in 2005, Palestinian Emad Burnet records his village's resistance to the encroachment of Israeli settlements.....

Excellent infographic marking the first appearance of a Palestinian film at the Oscars and charting the story of the resistance against the Israeli wall in the village of Bil'in through its first five years.

Bil’in has been one of nine Palestinian villages engaged in regular demonstrations against the Israeli wall, which continues to be built despite being declared illegal by the International Court of Justice in 2004. Bilin's community have been conducting weekly nonviolent protests against the annexation of their land, the building of settlements and the destruction of their farmland, all the time facing violence from the Israeli military and settlers, and indiscriminate raids and arrests in their village.
