A Film by Neta Efrony

Kalandia

a Checkpoint’s Story

Over a span of six years, Neta Efrony, a member of MachsomWatch (Checkpoints Watch), documented an Israeli military Checkpoint - on the road between East Jerusalem and Ramallah - which grew and expanded into becoming a Terminal.

Kalandia’s Checkpoint does not separate between Arabs and Jews; it separates between Palestinians and Palestinians. The film, shot in a cinéma vérité style, is an authentic and disturbing testimony to the daily struggle of Palestinians who wish to continue their routine lives, on their way to work, education, medical care or religious reasons.
