Barricades | Take 3

A documentary about two families bound by similar tragedy: one Jewish, the other Arab. The Jewish family lost two sons in the 1948 war, while the Arab family became refugees and lost two infants during their flight. Living in Haifa and the Jalazone refugee camp near Ramallah, the families embody the experiences, values, and perspectives of their respective societies. Through their daily lives and enduring trauma, the bilingual film offers a human reflection on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.

A Palestinian refugee visiting his ruined village is documented in an Israeli film. Amazingly, out of pure coincidence the same person is filmed again returning to his village in a different film, thirty years later. Will it be possible to film the return scene for the third time?
