In 2007, the human rights organisation B’tselem launched a project consisting of providing video cameras and training to Palestinian volunteers in the West Bank to document their lives under Israeli occupation. Made up of many short films, Of Land and Bread is a film of painful eloquence.
The story focuses on Sheikh Kamel, who manages everything in the Druze community and he hasn’t seen his brother for over 50 years. When his brother, who has been a rebel, suddenly appears to Kamel’s community, he receives pressure to accept him despite their previous conflict, but this will bring more trouble to his life.
