Hard hitting but effective film

Post: # 172685Post Dave »

Someone emailed me this film the other day - I warn you it is pretty brutal but it's well worth a watch http://vimeo.com/6946769

that really does highlight the situation.
Hard hitting film as you say, but worth watching.

One really good film. Not suitable for the easily depressed to watch, I'd say.

Theme: Israel/Palestine and the difficulty in getting a traffic accident injured person to proper care. Makes you feel it could happen to you and that makes it so powerful for such a short film. I'm really impressed.
There's blood visible (from the traffic accident), but that's not the point.

Absolutely, I felt quite shell shocked after watching it. Setting it in London is a stroke of genius, it really hammers the message home.
