This documentary captures the August 2005 evacuation of 8000 Israelis by the Israeli Defense Force from settlements in the Gush Katif section of the Gaza Strip, in advance of the resettlement of the area by Palestinians. IDF Major General Dan Harel is at the head of the evacuation, which clashes in a variety of ways with a group of Israeli activists headed by Noam Shapira, who protest the forced resettlement. The film ends with a thoughtful interview with Harel.

Audience Member I watched both disc's and it was so true. Loved the ending. So many brave women and men. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A suprisingly unpolemical documentary film about the evacuation of Jewish settlers from Gaza. Well worth seeing, if you can find it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Good documentary about the 2004 Israeli evacuation of the settements in Gaza. An eye opener...
