Synopsis

In 2001, a group of Israeli women, most of them in their sixties, established Machsom Watch (Checkpoint Watch), an organization dedicated to guarding the human rights of Palestinians who must regularly pass through checkpoints between Israel and the West Bank. For years, these women documented the troubling activity taking place at the checkpoints, giving viewers a never-before-seen look at the occupation. As the women revisit the footage from the checkpoints, this moving film showcases those who stood at the heart of the conflict, exposing the daily struggle of Palestinians living under occupation.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 5

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
